Murray's quad-axle

When do these come to Jolimont? Do they perform Sydney-Canberra expresses?

Not any more. Normally only BCIs on the expresses now.

There may only be one left in the fleet now.

There's a lot more than one.

There are two occasionally doing express from Canberra to the snow. But they do not belong to Murrays anymore.

Acc to the fleet lists there are still 2 in Canberra. The recent deliveries of BCIs should have covered all express shifts.

Perhaps The Inspector can comment on any recent sightings around Central ??

That is what I have heard also. Rumour has it they alternate between Gold Coast and Eagle Farm.

Saw one at the Jolimont Centre this morning with a Sno Express sign in the windscreen going to Perisher.
