If the rear most radiator screen area is a little larger thanusual and there is another horizontal rail on the handrails
thenits probably one of a bunch of SD50's that ironore miner Hamersley iron had....they now have the only AC6000's in
the country as well.
Due to no loading guage restrictions they are amongst the few inthis country that can buy "off the shelf" USA locos!!
