Hellyer mine closeure?

["Shane & Susan" <sspolle@selcon.com.au>]

I have just heard that the Hellyer mine on the old emu bay line has finally
run out of ore.

Does anybody know what future there is for the Hellyer spur and the emu bay
line, rolling stock and locos?

At one stage ATN/tasrail were talking about railing the zinc concentrate to
the Hobart smelter, but a lack of wagons and loco's prevented this. With
Hellyer closed, that releases about 40 wagons and 4 locos.

Thanks
Shane
