I wonder what this loco hit? The buffers, cattle-guard and coupling seems to be intact! Also, the headlights and markers seem to have suffered little or no damage!

Does anyone have any inputs?

This loco had caught fire and was apparently burnt beyond repair. The way the paint has peeled off confirms the fact that it must have been a major fire!

The curse of number 8!!

Doesn't look like it's crashed....any idea why it's scrapped?

My god, what a livery. Seems the WDM 2 class markings are blanked out. Superb catch

Al, the Millenium rake is nothing but converted AC-DC EMU #931-932. So, in essence its an ICF built EMU with all the corresponding dimensions.
