A Tulloch railcar set operating the Up Riverina Express in February 1974 at Cootamundra. These cars were designed to be added/subtracted at branch junctions to minimise train-changing and quantities of rolling stock. However interconnection problems with coupling/uncoupling meant that this sometimes didn't occur. On this day the full set had started at Albury with other trains making the connecting services.

A two-car railmotor at Mt Horeb. On this morning the Tulloch railcar which was supposed to have provided the service to connect with the Riverina Exp to Sydney wasn't available. Instead we travelled by road coaches, actually school buses, from Tumut station to Mt Horeb station. There we found this railmotor set for the remainder of the journey to Cootamundra. February 1974.
