    I wonder what the asking prices are.  It would be good to see one or two of them as preserved locomotives out at the wheatbelt heritage centre, especially an NJ and a D or DA.  However, I suspect that most, if not all, of them, will be heading off to Chile or Southern Africa sooner or later.

    why should we preserve an nj here? they have no history or heritage value over here at all. as for the other locos you mentioned yeah either the d or da should be preserved but I also think an "L" class should be preserved at some stage somewhere.
