Not from a car show. This belonged to a former neighbor and I shot it at his house.

Im not going to lie... 7282 is hands down my favorite loco - she is an absolute rocket-ship!
Sure... the EF class electrics are nothing short of superb, and yes, I have many fond memories yahooing milk trains through the Taranaki badlands with our GE C30-7 varients on the point... but nothing hits quite like sending 7282 full cry through the suburbs at max line speed while doing my best to keep scheduled time!
I have had the pleasure of driving 7282 all week this week hauling the Palmerston North to Wellington regional passenger train, the "Capital Connection", and she has performed flawlessly.
7282 is also the same loco that I spent 99% of my time driving while training for my passenger certification, and is the same loco that I completed my passenger ticket "sign off" runs in, so there is also a certain level of sentiment there too..
We have several DFB class locos in our region, but IMHO - 7282 is unquestionably the best of the fleet!
I wont bore you all with the details of how good she rides, how responsive her throttle is or how well her brake gear reacts - you will just have to trust me on that...
My hotrod...
