Remarks & Notes 
DC 4939 leads DL 9227 on train 191 from Auckland port to Westfield, diverted via Newmarket due to track closures which also saw it running down the up main. This made for a very rare photo opportunity. The train has just crested the 3% grade up to Remuera and once through the station will descend at 2.5%.

Trains on 3' 6" (1.067m) track from Whangarei to Bluff with virtually heritage rebuilt EMD and GE locomotives still the mainstay power. The network was privatized in 1990's and operated by Toll until 2008 when state owned KiwiRail was established.
