Briquettes in containers for Colac, briquettes in hoppers for
Warrnambool, containers for Bossloft (siding beyond Warrnambool),
FastTrack for Colac and Warrnambool (in vans and also 'Surepak'
containers).  Small parcels traffic (Green Star in particular) is
handled on the passes.  The goods runs weeknights (5 per week in both
directions), the briquettes are through worked from Morwell (train 9260
I think), the loco's are generally A class, although series 1 and 2 X's
are not uncommon.  If you're ever around North Geelong on the weekend,
the Warrnambool goods can be seen laying over in the sidings on the west
side of the main line between North Geelong 'A' and 'B' boxes.

Cheers,
Craig.
