930
class
| Sundays
in the 80's was always interesting to get
out and see what was rostered for the
regular Sunday working to Mount Gambier,
which usually including a mix or a 'lash-up'
of locos for balancing. A visit to Wingfield
on Sunday in 1988 revealed eight units on
the South East including 939, 844 and 931.
The locos and consist were ready to roll and
this a one of those "must follow"
jobs. |

This
next little lot were taken with the kind permission of the
signal cabin crew at Goodwood on the 20th December 1985.
Just happened to be there and
the
guys in the cabin said, care
to
come up and watch and I did.
Standard gauge trackage now replaces the cabin, but the
memories of that day live on.
