I noticed that these LDP' s had been allocated to the coal sector now since they had last been on NR freighters & steel trains in the past. it is just now they had been moved down to the hunter for workings on coal, believed to be replacing some of older 90 class that's now been in storage for the foreseeable future. with the LDP' being more modern for their work, its allowed some of those units to be given priority for class units to work on coal, among the 93 class/TT'S and still active other working 90 class that's still on coal haulage service down in the hunter.

pacific national/Aurizon/Crawfords/Rail first/SSR/Fletchers/Qube. have all got these locomotives. they are built from the UGL manufacturing facility in broadmeadows & is based on the NR class but with few new modifications that is different from the NR class. like for example they have the gills on the back on each end & new front railings at front of the crew cabs just outside the doors. because you can only tell the difference because these ones are a bit upper as the standard NR versions are straight. it is said that pacific national is getting a newer 94 class that is the samer look as these ones but is classed as 94. & it will come more with a much more newer evolution engine that is much newer for this class. it is suppose to be delivered somewhere around in this year. but no 94 class is yet delivered but is due for delivery for pacific national at any stage.

Good to see some "90" class action, and in the original colour scheme of FreightCorp. I heard some of the "90" class have been withdrawn and laid up?

@dieseldavetrains8988, it sure is a nice sight to see them. You would be correct, there are several stored at Kooragang and Morandoo as far as I believe, not sure on the exact numbers in total.

these are the nice famous two Indian pacific & ghan NR' S joining the Pacific national Nr doing freight duties. it is quite an interesting conbination

@@Modernsteeltrains90 oh yep. & I also recently noticed that the new great southern NR's also got to some freight work too. but most NR's are still owned by pacific national but are leased to operate on these type of passenger travel services like the Indian Pacific/ the ghan/ the overland & great southern. plus often pacific national NR often get used on Indian pacific & the overland aswell most of the time. their the ex Australian Rail unit loco's.
@Modernsteeltrains902 ай бұрын
The Great Southern locos will stay on freight until around the end of November this year, as the Great Southern Passenger train only runs during the summer. As for the NR’s, I guess it really doesn’t matter what livery they wear at the end of the day, for PN they are still a viable freight loco and if that’s what is in the depot to make up a train, then that’s what they’ll use, much to the excitement of us gunzels.

That is correct mate, all 9 of them are now on coal, as well as the four intermodal 93 class (9321-24)

@@Modernsteeltrains90 the LDP's used to belong to qr national in the past but has since been with Pacific national & progress rail. Plus SCT/Whitehaven coal & SSR/ONE rail have all got these exclusive locomotives. it's a good use they put them on. with so many jobs from freight/steel/ limestone/cement/coal. plus this year aswell I seen qube had got their brand new QE,class & some more new SRS classes aswell this year. these TT class & LDP design is so popular

it is very common to see the off duty ghan Nr's being put to freight work most of the time. because they often get rostered on the ghan passenger service then freight. & pacific national is the leading freight operator that provides these locomotives NR's on the great southern rail services including the Indian Pacific/the ghan & the great southern plus the overland.

Thanks Mate, I think we will have to wait until Auscision bring out the C43/44 re-runs. However I do know what you mean about the whine, I believe they are muffled compared to the US locos and the traction motors cause a lot of the whine too.
