Semaphore Road Balco

Patrick Portlink loco 1872 at the rear of the Balco service from Pelican Point to Bowmans, alongside Semaphore Road, Birkenhead on 7 June 2005.

 

Despite their neat and tidy external appearance, ex-Western Australia NB-class locos 1872 and 1873 had a very poor reliability record while operating this train and failures were frequently substituted with a motley collection of elderly motive power.
