International Railroad Discussion > Self propelled DMU’s

Greetings.

I was asked if I knew of any self propelled DMU’s available for sale (not the size of an RDC) and likely in use or in storage (operating condition) in the UK or other EU country or South Africa - possibly in South America also (Brazil, Argentina or Chile) — Able to operate MU and have controls at either end of car. Advantageous is they could be re-trucked for use on narrow gauge with some limited clearance locations.

Please DM message me if you’re able to guide me in a good direction to follow up.

Very much appreciated.

The JR Hokkaido Shinkansen line extension to Sapporo is going to be complete in the next few years which along with pretty consistent line reductions in Hokkaido will leave JR Hokkaido with quite a bit of surplus metre gauge equipment.

Japanese Government/ JR has been donating/selling surplus equipment cheap to Royal Railways in Cambodia.

Might want to research out the appropriate department there.
