Australian RODs

Post by Bill6 »

In a couple of months I'm driving to Brisbane (from Adelaide) & I was thinking of going via Dorriogo to see the two RODs there and get some photos. I haven't been up that way since 1998 though and just wanted to make sure they were still there.
Has any one (particularly Australian based LNER fans) been up there or heard anything about them recently?

& now to answer my own question. :)

I posted a similar query on some australian sites and got some feedback on this, the locos are still at dorrigo here are some links with photos of them and the site in 1999 and 2005, in case anybody is interested.

Thanks for posting back. I'll add the museum link to the O4/O5 page.
At the moment I think I have a passing comment about "two surviving in Australia", but more information (eg. a web link) will be much more informative.
