This week Schony747 was line side to see the all important full load test for Steam Locomotive J549. The locomotive based at the Victorian Goldfields Railway here in Central Victoria and has been out of action for around 18 months for an overhaul. This was an important test run to see if the locomotive was ready to run with passengers on a regular basis. The locomotive passed the test and re entered service a few days later. The weather was appalling with heavy rain for most of the line side shoot! Diesel Locomotive Y133 joined J549 for the test. You will notice the train returned to Castlemaine with only on e passenger car. Y133 took the other cars back earlier and J549 came back an hour or so after Y133 departed.
Regular steam trains are back at The Victorian Goldfields Railway. Check the website for details - https://www.vgr.com.au/
Have a great week - Brenden S.
