S-317 is working hard as she hauls a 'down' standard gauge goods train through Somerton. In June 1982, this loco was hauling an 'up' s.g. goods when it ran up the rear of the Spirit Of Progress which had broken down in thick fog at Barnawartha. The two crew on the loco were killed in the collision with the CS van on the rear of the Spirit. The CS van was destroyed as was the nose and cab of the 'S' class. S-317 was rebuilt and continues in service to this day painted in yellow and black for the SSR railway. 12:53pm, Saturday 6th September, 1980.
