This car came to us from Taieri Gorge Railway. Unfortunately this first class car got burnt out before it could be trucked to us.
|
With temporary yard trackage outside the shed installed we were able shunt all of our rolling stock into the shed to prevent
the windows getting broken by the local kids. That's if any windows are left unbroken.
EA4769 was the first carriage to enter the carriage shed. Photo taken before March 2002 |
