Remarks & Notes 
The DF class was built by GM in Canada and upgraded to GT22MC in 1990's. Metlink leases KiwiRail power for trains between the capital and Masterton. I was going to black-list this location if this 6th attempt at this shot got ruined by cloud again (and it nearly did.) This easy all year shot took me 3 years to get simply due to bad luck.

Trains on 3' 6" (1.067m) track from Whangarei to Bluff with virtually heritage rebuilt EMD and GE locomotives still the mainstay power. The network was privatized in 1990's and operated by Toll until 2008 when state owned KiwiRail was established.
