K190 and K153 (assisting from the rear) power up the 1 in 40 grade out of Macleod en-route to the outer suburban terminus of Hurstbridge, for a day running shuttles between there and Eltham. The shuttles are run annually as part of the Hurstbridge Wattle Festival, an event that has become very popular over the 11 years it has now run. K190 and K153 have been the motive power for all but the first of those 11 years.
