120 & 60 wait for the road - a photo on Flickriver

            Late in the day, 2198 stone train stands in Medway Junction yard waiting for access to the main line to continue its journey to Sydney.

In an interesting coincidence, the train is worked in wireline distributed power mode with NR120 on the lead and NR60 on the rear.  The contract to build the NR class was the largest single locomotive order in Australia's history.  Being for 120 locos, it was decided to build half at Cardiff, Newcastle on the east coast (NR1-NR60), and half on the other side of the continent at Bassendean, Perth on the west coast (NR61-NR120).  So the locos on this train are the final numbered NR class from each plant.
