Austrac in North



Aus loco discussion mailing list

Something to keep in the memory banks.

Readers may remember a comment made recently that Austrac has been hauling
containerised grain from Willow Tree to points south of Sydney.  I have now had
it confirmed that they are operating such a train (frequency etc unknown), and
that the engines (and naturally crew) layover at Quirindi (crew in a local
motel) whilst the vehicles are loaded.  The implication seems to be that it is
worked by a single crew from Sydney, with them getting their requisite break at
Quirindi, whilst the train is loaded at Willow Tree.
