Withdrawn locomotives
Alex Burgess made this Official Information request to KiwiRail
The request was successful.
From: Alex Burgess
Dear KiwiRail,
I'm writing to request information on withdrawn locomotives of the DBR, DC and DFT classes. Specifically, I am interested in which locomotives are withdrawn, why they were withdrawn (if possible), and an approximate date of withdrawal.
I would also like to request the status of DC 4732 (whether it is to be repaired or not), which I understand fell over near Westfield earlier this year.
Yours faithfully,
Alex Burgess
