The C class at Bradken is (I have heard) C510 (Cs9)

I presume this will be a paintjob, and seeing if it doesn't get grounds or other shutdowns in notch 8 for an hour or so on a loadbank, then out again?
That's an attention-getter!

Silverton's C510 is at Bradken for cab window modifications and repaint at least. It suffered a turbo failure enroute to Mitagong and therefore is incapable of operation until that component is repaired. As I understand it a rebuilt turbo can cost somewhere between $45k and $60k.

But then they would have to find a replacement if they took one out of a nother c.
