There is a fuel tanker train that runs southbound past my office at
Herston every day. I have often wondered as to where the fuel is sent
north of Brisbane as the tankers Barrington and Palmerston do a weekly
run up the coast calling at Bundaberg, Gladstone, Mackay, Townsville and
Cairns. 

Does anyone know where alonng the coast QR carts fuel?
