DFB 7267 leads DC 4300 in Tranz Rail livery on empty log train bound for Whangarei. The train will pass through 13 tunnels on the rustic and rugged North Auckland Line that serves New Zealand's northern-most city.
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.
