Bankers  Contributor's Pick!       
For many years the small South Australia rail town of Tailem Bend has been the place where additional power was added to trains before they took on the up-to-2.5% grades of the Adelaide Hills. On this quiet Saturday morning Pacific National has a pair of units waiting to be added as "bankers" (helpers) to get a westbound container train over the hills. DL-class DL39 is a 1988-built 3300HP Clyde/GM, model AT42C.
