Hi Dave,
I just wanted to follow up on this request. As I understand it, I should have received a response 10 days ago, so I was hoping for an update.

Thank you,

Good morning

My apologies, I'd sent the response before I headed off on annual leave, and hadn't seen the bounce back message until my return today.

Looks like the files were too big for either FYI or our server to process (we have sometime had issues with uploading large files to FYI).
Do you have an email address I can try sending them to?

Feel free to message me directly at dave.allard at KiwiRail.co.nz

Cheers
Dave

Hi Dave,
I'll shoot you an email in a moment. For the interest of public disclosure, however, is it possible for you to either upload the files here in separate emails, upload them in a zipped file, or to upload them to a Dropbox/similar file and share the link here? (I'm asking if it's possible because I genuinely don't know if it is)

Thanks,
T Brown
