3801 at Wingecarribee River
Following a long and complex overhaul, Australia's super-star loco., no. 3801, is firmly back in action!
Between 22nd and 27th September, she ran daily test trains along sections of the 'Main South' between Sydney and Melbourne (some days to Goulburn, others to Moss Vale). No passengers were carried - the purpose was purely crew training and to run the loco. in after further boiler work.
Here she is seen on 27th September blasting over the viaduct across the Wingecarribee River on the return from Moss Vale.
