Waiting steel train at Flemington, Sydney

Waiting this morning on the freight lines between Flemington Station and 
Sydney Markets were about 20 AN wagons and flats containing steel billet.

With the closure of Newcastle blast furnace, I presume these were bound for 
the rod & bar mill at Newcastle having come from either the Sydney Mini-mill 
or Whyalla.

The wagons were stopped, parked without loco.


At the same location on Monday morning, a rail crane was stowed in one of 
the unused Sydney Markets sidings. This could have been used to re-rail the 
Tangara which derailed near the Olympic Loop on Sunday afternoon. It was 
quite a sight with boom outstretched.
