FYI there was a mainline derailment last night in WA. The mainline is closed
until tommorow night (at this stage).
We understand Westrail goods #426 derailed around the 470km, and "carried
on" to Lake Julia unawares. All services are cancelled, including 2 days
worth of East and West freighters, and there are a *lot* of broken rails.

Thanks
