Sighted at Dynon Junction 1872 + X38 @16:07, ~10 wagons (VQCX) on the return
journey. Full of air and nothing else.

Quite different to the Double NR that arrived just a few minutes before
departure of the Austrac train. Very few vacant slots. These NR's are very
quiet, the only way I knew it was coming was because the ground started to
shake. I had just enough time to turn around to grab a quick shot.
