Eureka and Glenbrook chasing 168 and 425
| September 02, 2021 10:24PM |
By special instruction and work extra rule 99, the passenger train double headed with 168 and 425 and the freight double headed with Eureka and Glenbrook were allowed to operate with less than 10 minutes of separation. This gave a number of excellent opportunities to see both trains together, sometimes traveling in the same direction, sometimes in opposite directions on the winding line approaching Gravity Hill.
