Hmmmmmm, NRC run Brisbane and Sydney trains via
Melbourne and the very restrictive Adelaide Hills. 
The head of NRC is on record as saying, Melbourne will
become the "centre" of National Rail operations.
And here we are thinking that the "New National Rail

Pssst! Pssst! ....dont let the Truckies know that the

Melbourne and Adelaide though.!  ;-0
