It's interesting to see these leasing mobs buying all sorts of different power, I'd have thought it'd make more sense to standardise.Da!
Good call comrade - just like the good all old days back in the USSR.
Who says communism is dead?
Espee Railroad Services used FL220 to deliver CM3301 yesterday from Port Kembla Inner Harbour to Goulburn. The consist was FL220/CM3301/ROGF5251, running as train 2971. They departed Inner Harbour on time at 1700.Out of curiosity, who are Espee Rail Services? Had to look twice to see the gondola. No brakes on CM3301?
Seriously, did you ever think of trying google?Seriously from someone with a stupid star wars hat on their internet puppet or whatever you call the stupid things. Very surprised to see ACT ARHS Division using an almost rip off of the Southern Pacific logo. Union Pacific is very litigious about protecting the trade marks it owns of both current and the former railroads it has absorbed.![]()

If it's not, then UP haven't got a hope in hell.
You're correct in your later post that they are a commercial arm of ARHS ACT. They currently have a contract with CFCL Australia for locomotive and wagon transfers.
I believe CM3301 is testing today from Goulburn to Canberra?That would be correct, it is sitting about 50 metres from where I post this. I caught a photo or two of it tonight "red handed" as it were. and I will grab a few in the morning and post them when I can upload them to my photobucket.
CM3301 was sitting outside the Goulburn Workshops yesterday,17 August.
On the rear end there is a warning sign suggesting that operators be aware of 25kV overhead wiring.
I would have thought other voltages, like 1500 V DC would be more likely...
M636C
G'day M636C,
With the posibility of the Locos running in Adelaide, Perth and Brisbane on lines adjacent to lines with a 25kV overhead, the higher voltage warning is more appropriate.
If operated in Brisbane between Acacia Ridge and Fishermans Island, (Port of Brisbane) they would operate under 25kv on the dual gauge.
I am surprised that any voltage was specified at all on the sign, which I assume was applied in the USA. The sign could be read as suggesting that you need not worry about overhead voltages less than 25 kV which I'm sure wasn't the intention.One would assume that the sign is intended for trained workers climbing on the locomotive who understand the risks of overhead wiring, and would apply appropriate risk management strategies, regardless of the voltage.
