Freightcorp will commence its Leigh Creek operations on Feb 1999. Two trains
(both 2x81 and 85 hoppers) will travel via Broken Hill on Sunday 31/1. They
will depart Broken Hill at 2250hrs and 2350hrs and apart from crew changes
are scheduled to run direct to Leigh Creek. Stirling North departure times
are 0635 and 0735.

The two trains will be fueled and loaded at Leigh Creek and combined before
departure which is scheduled for late afternoon, but in reality it is
anyone's guess what time they get way for Port Augusta.
