Methinks you have some facts wrong. THIS IS THE WAY NR COMES!!!!!!!
Kewdale IS THE NR FREIGHT YARD. You make it sound as if they went a
different route. This is the normal way - the only way


Kewdale -> Forrestfield -> Woodbridge -> Midland -> Millendon Junction
-> Avon Yard and the Eastern States.

Under bridges - Tonkin Highway -> Kalamunda Road -> Midland Footbridge
-> Roe Highway -> bye bye

It is always a close thing undwer the bridges.
