[edit] Focus of article?

This article has about 6 sections on details of rolling stock that I find extremely tedious. Yet it only has about 2 sentences, near the very end, about the route - the main attraction here. I don't think TranzAlpine is notable for its rolling stock, regardless of how well refurbished, sorry. I think this article needs a complete rewrite to much reduce this "foamer" information and enhance the actual description of the line. Jpp42 09:20, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
