she looks good back in her original livery. Need to get in touch with someone there so be on the mailing list for runs. Then work out a trip to Sydney :)

aaah, early into Central already setup for the run, is why 86 is in front, no working turntable, 64 leads out

@Marhleet yes correct her first day on the job with the cockatoo run we use the two 44's in case the 64 at the point blows out. I am fairly sure it was the first heavy run as well.

[signaller44]

A bit overkill double 44's and only 4 cars but the second 44 waqs probably for insurasnce incase 4464 failed

[TrainSpotterX]

It was her first heavy run to Robertson for the 64 and yes 86 was the back-up

[adrianclehmann]

@TrainSpotterX if 86 is in front and 64 is running backwards, which one is there and which is the backup ?

[TrainSpotterX]

The 86 was the back-up

I hate it when I see graffiti on nice old trains like that.

Yes I feel the same way pal, I work with those 44's and they will all be re sprayed back to NSWGR livery at some point looking as good as 4464
