01-Aug-2021: While waiting at Yaraville for the Tait, a Flinders Street bound Metro Comeng set rolled into Yarraville station.
Compare the pair - a century+ apart...... 316M on an up service at Yarraville station (a numerical sibling to the Tait motor - I wonder if there's a Metro 317M to number-clash with Tait 317M).
(A pre-launch test run by Steamrail's magnificently restored Tait set was undertaken on this day - comprising Motors 317M and 381M, Trailer 208T and Driving Trailer 230D, the set ventured out from Newport and headed for the eastern suburbs.)
