Sorry if this appears twice, but it doesn't seem to have gone through - 

Probably old hat by now but,

An NR service suffered a screwed journal near Nhill  around midnight last night.
damaging track all the way to Salisbury (Vic) including demolishing the
facing switches at Salisbury loop
Nothing is much is moving on the Adelaide to Melborne corridor with about 12
services affected. The Overland's were terminated at Nhill and Dimboola and
will retrun empty during the day - the westbound return expcetd Adelaide
around 1630 hours.

The track is not expected to be available for traffic untill around 1800hrs
today. 

Could be some interesting movements tomorrow (Weds) normally the busy day
now combined with a procession of delayed services.

An extra SCT Adelaide Perth service was scheduled to depart at 2200hrs
tonight, but it is not clear if theis will work or not now.

Mark
