    An interesting observation last night when looking back over the video footage.  6MB9 also had aurizon loading on the train.  A first?

    6MB7 did not run last night!

    I noticed when I came past North Dynon last night that there was a lash up of at least 4 Aurizon locos but no super freighter set up for departure.

    Back on Wednesday 25th there was a photo put up by Ian Green over at VicSig showing 42206 with

    "an Aurizon transfer to SCT Laverton at West Footscray Junction (SG)"

    ***edit, the above tiny print reads "an Aurizon transfer to SCT Laverton at West Footscray Junction (SG)". Dang cut and paste***

    This struck me as very strange at the time and there have been some large Aurizon freighters from North Dynon in recent weeks so I wondered if it was Aurizon having excess loading for the MB route but who knows/
