Re: What happened to *last* week's Ghan?

["Roderick Smith" <rodsmith@werple.net.au>]

I heard on Thursday that the eastbound had been blocked in western Victoria
when a preceding freight was in a level-crossing collision at about
Dimboola.  Ghan arrived at Melbourne Spencer St at about 1.30 and left at
about 2.30.

In a similar earlier incident, the train was terminated at Stawell, and
originated at Ararat.  I don't know why the strategy was not adopted again,
but perhaps buses were unavailable.
