During June we were able to assist to Oberon Tarana Heritage Railway with their recently acquired 73 class locos.
7307 and 7321 were purchased by OTHR in a non operable condition.
Assistance was given to OTHR to reactivate these locomotive prior to moving them on to Tarana.
One important task was to remove the Patrick branding on each locomotive.
Rick works with a hot air gun to remove the decals.
Rick Fletcher stands beside “Rick”.
Graham Williams put many days working on both 73 class locomotives at Eveleigh during the short visit .
It was a pleasure to assist OTHR during their short stay at Eveleigh. Both locomotives are now in Oberon and will eventually be operating heritage trains. More information about the Oberon Tarana Heritage Railway can be found here.
