Two classics, two eras, one train! 5917 and 42103 charge towards Yarra, soon after departing from Goulburn.

On Thursday May 30, 2019, the Australian travel company Cruise Express began a six day rail tour through southern NSW and Victoria with a mix of heritage steam and diesel locomotives from each state. The tour was titled the "Great Southern Loop". Streamlined EMD 42103 hauled the first leg from Sydney to Goulburn, where 5917 steamer was attached for the second leg to Junee.

 

These photos show the two NSW locos combining to haul the train, numbered 9S03, south on a wicked and bitterly cold day.
