Goodwin/Alco DL-531 |
Description: |
The Goodwin/Alco DL-531 is one of Australia's most important locomotive designs, having been built in large numbers (210) and proving useful for a multitude of duties. Most were built for New South Wales RY in the 48-class; a smaller number went to South Australia RY, where they were the 830-class. Built from 1959 to 1970, they carry a 6-251 engine rated at 950HP for traction. 833, shown here, was built for the SA Ry and is now stored in poor shape off the Cootamundra turntable. |

True Blue Aussie Alco: Pacific National 48-Class 4898 |
Description: |
The 48-class locomotive is considered one of the most important diesels in Australian rail history. Goodwin/Alco built 165 of the type from 1959 to 1970 for New South Wales RR and 45 of the virtually identical 830-class for South Australian RR. The type worked in all varieties of service, but are best known for their work on grain branchlines, where they replaced steam. Roughly 80 of both class remain in service and a small number are being rebuilt in places like Junee for continued duty. PNR 4898, former NSWR 4898, Goodwin/Alco 1966. 900HP Alco model DL-531. |

The lead unit, 48164, is in very heavily weathered Pacfic National colors; the trailer, GrainCorp 48201, has received a new paint job at the Junee shops in the near past.
