 Dry Creek North 
Wednesday 5th November 2003 saw 
CLP8, CLP13, 2204, GM44 and 3103 head to Sydney for crew training, as part of a 
new contract that Australian Railroad Group had secured hauling grain for 
Manildra in New South Wales. The 22 and 31 class had only just arrived back in 
Adelaide ex. Darwin line construction trains and so were on their first trips 
east since their return from the NT.
