Whilst the "break of gauge" problem between Melbourne and Sydney was solved in 1962 the ritual of swapping locos on through Melbourne to Sydney trains was not done away with until the mid 80's. Here we see N.S.W. 42216 coupling onto the Melbourne to Sydney "Intercapital Daylight" X 48 has just uncoupled, having brought the train from Melbourne and is returning to Wodonga to await its next trip to Melbourne. Jan. 1981
Mechanically these two Clyde products were identical but they had vastly different body designs. |
