Withdrawn locomotives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I'm writing to request information on withdrawn locomotives of the DBR, DC and DFT classes. Specifically, I am interested in which locomotives are withdrawn, why they were withdrawn (if possible), and an approximate date of withdrawal.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
