> Well here is one for you,Last week FV people stood on the other side of
the street and watched while the sheriff and his men went and removed the
staff and seized equipment from Evison Grain & Transport who have been sub
leasing part of the yard at Warragul on the south side opp the sale yards.
They then brought in the log loader which FV uses to load logs into there
wagons and an excavator and a couple of ABB back hoes and totally demolished
Evisons shedding and cleaned up the site.
It made the front page of last weeks Warragul Trader.
It would appear at this stage that the whole south side boundary is being
cleaned up to a point midway to the old loco depot.
ABB staff are picking up new sleepers etc and moving them over to other
areas like the works depot on the north side of the main line.

On another note the method of loading logs at this location appears to have
changed some what. The timber jinkers are unloaded straight on to the ground
the logs at right angles to the track. Later the rail trucks are loaded
through out the day,and are cleared by down goods.
It would appear that some big tonnage is being moved at the present,5 to 10
wagons daily.
