I would like to know where QR operates pig Cattle trains. I chased several
cattle trains today on Beenleigh line/North Coast line and at Wacol. These
trains were carry cows mostly, I never saw pig trains before do QR cattle
trains carry anything else apart from pig and cow? (sheeps perhaps?)

BTW I witness at Wacol livestock yard and found QR staffs were very effcient
this afternoon, they were able to shunt. unload around 20 wagons of cows
within half an hour.

Cheers
