RTL01 and former VR ballast hoppers

Today I went for an hour and a half trip to Muswellbrook to find the 
RTL and ballast hoppers that I had seen on Wagonfreaks blog.

1 Western Star truck, add highrail/railway wheels and you
have an RTL. This truck was once owned by V/Line and
Freight  Australia and now owned by Just Tracks. I don't
know too much about this oddities history except it was used
on log trains under its Freight Australia years and the horns
on the bonnet seem to be a new addition.
 


Former VR VZMA 67V now in Just Tracks green in
 Muswellbrook

Former VR VZMA ballast hopper now coded OHBA93R
Of note is the chain over the wagon body attached to the
bogies
 


Till next time
