2101

A rare shot with 2101 in the loop at Penguin June 2008. Not long after this 2101 was declared unfit for use due to ongoing bogie problems that have plagued this loco since getting new wheels fitted. It was involved in a string of derailments, and although the workshops may not have got the bogie overhaul completely right, some of the blame must lie with the rotten track.
