I think we need to be positive, this time last year West Coast hadn't fitted any CDL and were instead up for a fight in court. They appear to have completed fitment to at least 12 vehicles since.

Haighie liked Rander's post in the thread RTC 2026.

Is 45110 definitely heritage use only, seems very coincidental that the agreed hire term to the GWSR seems to be ending at about the same time they have vac braked stock becoming available again. 44767 is definitely being worked on as there is a...
