[edit] 3801

Why was the 3801 painted grey. I liked the green better. And why does the sign on it's front say SAVE 3801?

  • I guess they wanted it to look like the original paint. The sign says "SAVE 3801" because RailCorp refuses to sign another lease to 3801 Limited to operate and maintain the train, in which the train might be transferred back to the NSW Railway Museum in Thirlmere, and the old Eveleigh workshop being knocked down.
