    3. There is another error - the Batasia Loop is the _only_ 360 deg loop now in use in the DHR, the other two have been removed and no longer in use.

Well spotted Graham. For those who didn't know the other one was thew remark taht the loco was removed on each of the zig-zags and placed on the uphill side of the zig-zag. In fact all the train does is push the train backwards on the reverse side of a zig-zag. ooroo
