The Headboard Club
Already up to a blistering speed of 20km/h, the crew are taking it nice and easy with 136-year-old veteran locomotive Y112 as it departs Laverton station and emerges out from under the Princes Freeway working light engine test run 0544 back to Newport. 11/10/25
This was Y112's first mainline outing since June 2022 following a series of 're-wheeling' works on the bottom-end of locomotive by Steamrail Victoria. During this time the Y was also fitted with headboard brackets (after being the only operational Steamrail steam locomotive without them), a move that I'm sure will be thoroughly enjoyed by the LHAS.
