Thanks Kev for the "real world" answers. Thus NRR would expect good service
by buying a couple of 422 locos.

When NRR get one of the 422's going I'll get myself down to Murwillumbah for
another ride on their tourist train.

NRR sometimes use the 421 blunt #2 cab leading on the passenger trains eg
Green 42105 led the Xmas day special home blunt cab  leading with a blue
loco assisting.

Cheers
Peter
