Trains Around the Christchurch East line #2

You have to love the diversity of motive power these days. On the MNL (Main North Line) I see anything from a DC to DFT generally double or triple heading!

[@ethant4531]

A DFT would be on the Coastal Pacific or on a freight going up North. DCs on the MNL is usually rare, they usually go up on 736 either to be scrapped or go to the Hutt Workshops.

@@ethant4531 A DXR is more common than a DFT on the Coastal, from the amount of times I have seen the Coastal. But even that's changing now.

Thanks for this. At the 3'45" mark it almost looks like it's going to run out of rail...

Nice!
