I left my first dedicated railfan trip to Victoria a year too late. The 25 N class locos were introduced from late 1985, and N473 was less than a year old when I photographed it on the 0745hrs Ballarat to Melbourne passenger ascending Warrenheip Bank - 4 December 1987..
A year earlier it would more than likely have been an exotic 'bulldog' of the S, B or A class variety and probably a motley collection of rolling stock to boot.
