Last regular run of 422s on a FreightCorp train - January 15th, 2000

Scenes recorded on Saturday January 15th, 2000, of diesel locomotives 42219 & 42210 hauling empty oil train no.2138 from Canberra to Enfield. This was the last regular run of 422 class locomotives on a FreightCorp service.

Fantastic videos, shame there isn't any more 422's left in service as 422's, only a few 22 classes. Also HL203 & FL220 i spose in WA

Love the Molonglo Tunnel footage - same as the one you did featuring 42220 Heavy Load Trials. The 422s had their own unique chug that drowned out anything on track.
