my_HTML([The 48 class were introduced by the NSWGR to replace steam
    working on light branch lines. From September 1959 onwards, a
    total of 165 units were placed in service, and have been used on
    virtually all lines on the NSW network. They have an axle load of
    only 12.5 tones, and their 900 horsepower is well matched to the
    typical branch line workings. In tandem, they are regarded as
    equivalent to a single A HREF="$1/44class/index.html"44
    class/A unit, hence their wide route availablity and utility.])
