Fuel Consumption of KiwiRail trains

Alex Lindbom made this Official Information request to KiwiRail

The request was successful.

From: Alex Lindbom

Dear KiwiRail,

I would like to see how much fuel (diesel) is used by Kiwirail trains per year.
Could you please send the annual consumption for the following trains:

-Coastal Pacific
-TranzAlpine
-Northern Explorer
-Capital Connection
-Wairarapa Connection
-Waikato Connection

I understand that fuel consumption may have dropped due to covid. Would it be possible that I receive the peak values from previous years, if they exceed current demands.

Yours faithfully,

Alex Lindbom
