The sunshine has returned and the crowd of the first run passengers has dispersed but it's still more than an hour to the second departure. I tidy up some things which I didn't get to do before the first run. Then I left the site to a road over bridge to get a photo of the second run. 18/05/2024

106 coupled to the train. The train is having its brake safety test done and will stand there to be viewed by the passengers and others for an hour and a bit. I've just walked up from the other side of the workshop having cleaned myself up from lighting-up and greasing 106 and changing into an on-train staff uniform. 18/05/2024

A two page test report for the transmission links for a two-way radio system. The links joined the track-side base stations and the control centre. The system is no longer in use. This is used for checking the links shown here: www.ipernity.com/doc/grahamh/24117033

E&M signalling over copper pairs in Australia was done using the 4W (1 pair each direction for the audio signal) circuit, ie no additional conductors. This is done in a similar manner to that used in feeding DC power to a condenser/electret microphone in a public address or studio sound system. The direct current for the signalling flows one way equally on both wires of a pair with the earth being used as the return conductor.
