this video has made my month! did your group leave the lempor exhaust in place? the vr was happy to modify and experiment to improve the performance of their locos. and there are other r classes around, therefore the mod deserves to remain. i was never shy about putting different carbie combos on my old holdens. made great cars better.
6029 at the present point in time is fitted with ICE radio that is not being used maybe you could make an approach to the new owners of 6029 to borrow the radio until current funds are available for R766 to have her own radio.
nearly ready to go! not in victoria, don't care. this is a wonderful time that finally, nearly 100 years after victoria agreed to design all future locos to be convertible to sg one has been finally been done and near ready to roll. the ghosts of former vr employees will have a guiding hand on your regulator. i hope the group planning to build an n class are forward thinking. there might come a time where there's nowhere to use it.
Get a GoFundMe.com campaign going. I have no idea of the cost of an ICE radio or what could be offered as an incentive to donate but you'd do better than a RU-vid video for cash return, assuming you got the word out on social media and the like.
