Good morning Colby

Just letting you know we've received your request and I've passed it onto our Rolling Stock team.
The two guys who will have this information are on annual leave currently though, so will be back I touch once they return.

Cheers
Dave

Subject: Official Information request - Which DX is to be sedated for preservation

CAUTION EXTERNAL EMAIL: Do not click links or open attachments unless you know the content is safe.

Dear KiwiRail,
I am asking a question in regards to what DXB class locomotive will be sedated for preservation.
Will it be the 5016. 5051. 5068. 5080. 5097. 5120 or 5137? Since 5074 and 5166 are off overseas and 46 Locos are going overseas and one DXB is staying.

Which of the Locos is it sedated to be.

Yours faithfully,

Colby.
