Aus loco discussion mailing list
All of which goes to show that the Tranz Rail PR machine is fairly loose
with the facts. Neither Queensland or WA railways are privatised, and the
cost of shipping the locos to NZ and back again just so TRL could do the
work hardly makes for good use of limited financial resources. The Tranz
Rail coup was to get rid of these ancient locos, Tasrail certainly got the
worst end of the stick in this particular deal.
