Because they got newer engines, the ME series.

[BowenCreek]

you're welcome to have the ugly things back



[GayBoyRunning]

I love the MZ eninges why do they not used them as much any more..?

[dave3981]

@larstog94 would you rather they be scrapped?

@koeddk

I know - Hence why there's danish grafitti on the engines. :)

On a sidenote, if you like the old MZ engines, you should watch this video watch?v=5WBeqicbxZQ which is a lovely example of what a well kept MZ will do after standing still for 11 years. :)

@Jesus45U 16 MZ's was sold to australia :)

[Jesus45U]

On the upside, Denmark now exports grafitti to Australia too. :)

I cry when i see this, I really miss the DSB MZ locomotives, now they have an ugly color, and it is not the right MZ sound.

1:37 - listen to this, this is not the right sound :'( You have destroyed our great GM locomotives!

[gmspeedfreak]

the dunny is facing towards the engine and fully open in the engine room, very noisy if you're trying to take a crap

Give those old machines a new life in australia, instead of recycle it yet !
