If anyone south of Christchurch was wondering what this was running on the rails this week, check this video out. youtu.be/QSYBIBvDc2c?si…

Now for the new DM locomotives. youtu.be/1ErxElc2fJo?si…

@LewisHoldenNZ There has been a slight correction, it isn't 920 wagons from Kiwirail, it is 920 wagons in total from a variety of suppliers.

More locomotives off to South Africa. ‘Private rail operator Traxtion will invest R3.4 billion in 46 locomotives and 920 wagons from KiwiRail in New Zealand – which operates the same Cape Gauge environment used in South Africa.’ MORE: moneyweb.co.za/news/south-afr…

Kiwirail 924s collecting milk powder from @Fonterra's processing site in Edendale and MDF from Daiken's site at Brydone before heading north to Dunedin where they will be exported. youtu.be/vPqvE0AYjEA?si…

If this is true,Southland farmers are in a world of hurt for the next couple of days

@fairleigh_ag An omission the 136MW should have been 124MW

@fairleigh_ag Going by the latest update from PowerNet, you're probably right. Demand was 36MW compared to normal demand of 136MW (as of 4:30 p.m.) and just under half of their clients don't have power ( 17800 out of 38,200)

As of the 24/10/25 @ 7.30pm, The tractor mounted generator we share with a neighbor has milked 1000 cows,3 times since 11.30am yesterday. The generator for the robot shed has run continuously for the last 31hrs & counting. We're told power could still be off till Tuesday......😬
