    Anyone see the recent SBS program on the Ghan?
    A three hour program of the Ghan trip from Adelaide to Darwin with virtually NO commentary!
    The program style is called "Slow TV"

    Tomorrow, Sunday 14th SBS are screening the 17 hour version

    Any Opinions?

    Not quite correct the Ghan had NR75 and 109, NR74 is working up the East coast to Brisbane.

    No report from last week as work had me in the South East for the weekend

    1AD8  ex APT on time at 12:15pm Sunday, 18th February 2018

    NR109 NR75 with a consist of 40 carriages.  

    8050 as terminal shunter.

    As mentioned a few weeks back the motorail wagon is now to be positioned at the rear of all GSR passenger trains, apparently this is a result of the two recent derailments of motorail wagons (Torrens Junction & East Perth)

    1AD8  ex APT rather late today*, at 12:50pm Sunday, 29th April 2018

    NR109 NR21 with a consist of 36 carriages.  (Sixth week in a row for NR109) NR74 had gone missing

    8050 as terminal shunter.

    * Front portion delayed at platform 1 until 12:16pm due a faulty refrigeration compressor on one of the dining cars being replaced by technicians.
    Front portion then backed into platform 2 to couple the rear portion finally departing at 12:50pm
    However - the locos were held at the junction to the mainline until 12:58pm (awaiting path) so a total delay of 43 minutes
