Barossa Valley colours

Australian National ALCos 950/966 roll downhill towards Rowland Flat on 3 November 1987 with the daily stone train from Penrice quarry in the Barossa Valley.

 

I think the locos must have recently been through an acid wash as the shade of green seems a bit off.

 

The three different colours worn by the hoppers chart the transition from the South Australian Railway to Australian National.
