----------------------------------------------------------

Victorian C504 keeps 4831 company.
The C class is still with us, but 4831 was scrapped while still in her original Indian Red livery (seen here).

8045 undergoing repair at Delec.
Today, 8045 is scrapped, as are 8001 and 8034 below.

The damage that saw 8001 withdrawn is readily apparent in this shot at Hope Street.

4401 has a peak inside the shed.

This 'World Series' ALCo was one of the lucky one's, having gone on to preservation. Even though that is now as a static display at the Junee Roundhouse Museum.

A couple of shots from my earliest Delec visits.

8156 was only a few years old when this shot was taken, and she is still with us to this day.

48127 is one of the fast dwindling number of 48 class (ALCo DL531) still in existence.
A recent status update can be found HERE.

They look similar, but they aren't.

8650 was a trial tri-bo locomotive, having three sets of 4 wheel bogies. The rest of the class, 8601-8649, all having the more standard six wheel bogies.
8650 has thankfully been preserved by the 'Dorrigo Steam Railway and Museum', while 8615 is now believed to be running around the streets of Incheon in South Korea as a 2004 model Hyundai.

Delec looking north.

19th August 1986

Two locomotives that are still with us around 35 years later.

7344 would latter be painted in a metro version of this livery, with the Indian Red replaced with an attractive light green. She is owned by 'Transport Heritage NSW' and was recently placed in the care of 'The Railmotor Society' who, regretfully, decided to paint it back in to the Indian Red livery above.
48161 is owned by Pacific National.

A rather new G520 in Enfield yard.
She be with Pacific National also.

Former MRC, W2841 is now presumed to be scrapped.

Time was fast running out for the 44 class and many of our nights were spent around Delec and Hope Street witnessing their final movements.

4486 is another 44 that has made it into preservation.

4479, not that you can easily tell. Locomotive has since been scrapped.

Poor old 4405 also got the chop.

The famous David Henderson paying his respects to these workhorses.

4451 as since gone to god.

Class leader 4401 again.

Well there ya go. This was planned to be the last in the series, that was until yesterday when a heap more Delec notes were uncovered. 

There are still hundreds of Delec shots gradually coming forth as I go through box after box of photos. For this I humbly apologise.

So I am afraid that you will be forced to endure more down the 'track'.
