Enter your post below.
The rebuilding of passenger services after WW2 here in Australia saw the introduction of separate power cars containing generators on longer distance trains to provide "hotel power" to the trains then being air conditioned. <br />They suevived thru to the 1990s when many loco hauled passenger trains left town for the last time. <br />However Queensland still has faith in loco hauled passenger trains and has recently introduced several new power cars to serve inland trains out of Brisbane. <br /> <br />
