well, if you are a Kiwi Rail accountant perhaps.....
545 at Whareroa
Largely thanks to Mother Nature causing a big arse slip that closed the road through the Manawatu Gorge, milk trains have started rolling a little earlier than planned.
As the milk tankers could not get through from the Hawkes Bay to Whareroa or over the hill very well into Longburn, the milkies have been pumped into action to ferry the milk through to Wharero. And in the blink of an eye we have three full milk trains running already.
I spent today on Yard Shunt, unloading 540, making up 545 and pushing some empties around with the DSJ.
I had the day off tomorrow, but I have been called in to run 526 so no doubt there will be chance to get some more cheesy roster shots :-)
AH
