'Forsayth' at Forsayth


Former Queensland Railways diesel shunter DL2, a 1-C type from 1954, is seen in the outback northern Queensland town of Forsayth in May 2004, the destination of the Savannahlander train - a post about that soon.  This was ordered through the Drewry sales organisation and built by Robert Stephenson and Hawthorne of Newcastle-on-Tyne.  NZ Railfan types will thus insist that they be called 'Drewry' shunters, but most would use the builders name.
