Cootamundra New South Wales sits in the middle of the state's most productive wheat growing region. It's yard is usually full of power, particularly when grain is moving. Here two Pacific National grain trains sit in the town's yard awaiting movement south. The 81-class is similar mechanically to an American SD40-2 with a 3000HP EMD 645 engine inside. They're fairly common in New South Wales, with 84 being built. |
