No.2325 has been withdrawn from service following a failure of one of its power bogies; the cause is believed to be poor construction of the bogie, causing its failure.

The locomotive had completed its initial trials successfully, but began to suffer from performance issues afterwards - the motor was functioning correctly, but the gears in the bogie were not engaging, and thus the locomotive was immobile. Upon inspection, it was deduced that damage had been done to the bogie unit itself, when attempting to install the new couplers, and thus the unit was unable to remain intact as one piece. This was a surprise, given that the locomotive was able to complete its trials quite well even after the couplers had initially been installed.

An analysis on the value of the locomotive will come at a later date; the locomotive may be scrapped given its relative inexpensiveness compared to other locomotives, or it may be repaired with parts from another diesel - the options will be weighed out and the results collected within a few weeks' time. Until then, the locomotive will become a static exhibit, while another locomotive is sourced to replace it.
