                                           VH-TEL was registered new in November 1969.  It spent all of its early career in South
                                            Australia, and was photographed by Danny Tanner (above) at Parafield in January 1985.
                                            It moved east in latter years and was seen rotting away at Cessnock, NSW by Ian McDonell
                                            in November 2008 (below).  It is used for the occasional spare part.  Note load of bricks
