New KiwiRail AK Passenger Cars - Delivery Run
Loading...
Uploaded by deamze08 on Sep 22, 2011
DFT 7295 hauls two of KiwiRail's new AK class passenger cars and a rebuilt viewing car on their delivery run from Dunedin to Christchurch today.
The AK class passenger cars were built by KiwiRail's own Hillside Engineering plant in Dunedin. These two cars will be used for staff training, and once enough have been completed to make a set they will be used on long distance passenger services. These are the first two of 17.

Fantastic! They look really good. Congrats to Hillside Workshops for a fine job indeed! Now if they would build a few more to service the Overlander too.

Looks good! The train could almost be mistaken as a new Southerner. (We wish!)

Nice big picture windows a la Japanese tourist cars. Not to be confused with the AK cars on the big island to your west which are the track test cars that run all over Australia on the standard gauge network.

@rawiri091 These will go into service on the Tranz Alpine and Coastal Pacific services. I'm unsure when, I think the month October was mentioned.
