Seen here at Wagga station with a diesel assisting from Wagga to Junee due to coal shortage. The coal which was said to have been at Tumbarumba was too weathered to use.

Photo taken of the Easter 1972 railfan tour train to Albury and Tumbarumba NSW Australia. This photo taken at a photo stop on the return run from Tumbarumba to Wagga. There was supposed to be coal at Tumbarumba to resupply the tender but it had weathered to much to use. So at photo stops redundant sleepers and wood was collected and added to the tender as shown here.
The loco, 3144, was originally built as a tank engine for Sydney suburban service. Following electrification 77 of them had tanks removed and were fitted with a variety of second hand tenders. They then replaced older locos in branch line service. In the last years of steam they became shunters and back-up locos in country locations, this one being borrowed for the tour from Griffith, some 250 Km away from here.
The photo is scanned from a high speed ektachrome slide.
