NAL Upgrade Work Train
Рет қаралды 2,572
4 жыл бұрынAs part of the North Auckland Line upgrade project, covering Swanson to Whangarei, a number of work trains have been operating over weekends from Westfield to a number of locations. Here, we see one such train, which spent the weekend offloading sleepers before returning to Westfield empty. DFB 7077 and DFB 7049 provided the power for this weekend's train, with only DFB 7077 in power on the trip home.
As a bonus, DL 9072 and DCP 4790 are seen descending into Ellerslie with the port shunt, running via Newmarket instead of the usual route via Panmure due to track work on the North Island Main Trunk.

Thanks to winston Peter's tbh in the rail side of things... i hope the triangle gets fixed too so that can run steam locos up and down and use the triangle to turn around

Just how bad that line has got is evidenced by the shake, rattle and roll over the crossing at 00:48.

Nice video. Wonder why they keep using a DC and a DL for the port shunts. Also did you film the driver training run with DFB 7199 and DC 4260?
