      So good to see something other than a C17 for a change.

      Honestly, I never thought I'd see it out this way, but here she is. They'll be plenty more videos of her before she's returned to QR.

      The maintenance personnel are waiting on parts to arrive before a trial fitting can be made.

      Is c16 221a on loan or is it there permanently at Warwick

      @Scott Cannell It was supposed to be on loan for a couple of months, but it's been returned back to the Ipswich Workshops following a derailment over some points. C17 974 is at Southern Downs Steam Railway at present and has just finished a 3 day long weekend tour to Goondiwindi.
