The end of X53
After a dynamic brake grid fire and traction motor failures while working an Aurizon service through the Adelaide Hills , Aurizon made the decision to store the loco and then sell it to CFCLA.
In the middle of stripping the loco for all usuable parts X53 sits in a partially scrapped condition at Islington Workshops on 17-1-2018
