Re: MS7 tomorrow / Cook River Yard, 2pm 9/2

Seen at Cook River Yard at 2pm this afternoon.

Austrac's 1873 shunting on the western roads.

EL54 (Bonecrusher) in CFCLA's blue "paint job"/EL51 in AN green.

4486/EL62D/EL58D, both EL's in AN green. Does anyone know what the "D"  on 
these EL's indicates? I can't remember seeing it on EL54 or EL51.

Freightcorp's 8011 was idle in the yard.

I didn't see the CQAY wagons, though they could have been hidden in one of 
many sidings. I wonder if Austrac are intentionally using the CQAY's with 
what must be one of their heavier loads? Are Austrac trialing these or do 
they have a firm order for more? I seem to remember a post a few months ago 
that 30 are arriving from Quingling Works (?) in northern China.

Best regards,

Rob

Have you checked out the 5 long low CQAY wagons on it yet. They always seem 
to be carrying Reflex Paper 9'10" containers.
