DL class locomotives mean distance before failure

Lewis Holden made this Official Information request to KiwiRail

The request was successful.

From: Lewis Holden

Dear KiwiRail,

In 2012 KiwiRail published a comparison between the new DL class locomotives mean distance before failure (MDBF) and older DX class locomotives.

I request the most recent MDBF figures KiwiRail for both the DL and DX class locomotives.

Yours faithfully,

Lewis Holden

They were also published in the NZ Railfan magazine about the same time.

Yours sincerely,
