SSR Grain Trains

Not a lot of sunny days in the past 4 weeks, so pretty slim pickings.   

The SSR 'Green' train was doing a single trip to Port Kembla with double doggies.  602 got dropped at Mossy.  

Trailing unit CLF1, Milton Bromwich.

The next day GM22 led the 'Grey' train to Maldon with a neat combo of GM, 48, 49, C.

Enjoy!

Boxcar 'reborn'?

These pair of 46'6 PN reefers have been rebranded for a number of months now, but have been captive between Perth and Melbourne.

Yesterday they ventured south from Brisbane to Melbourne on BM4, which does not usually convey PN container/express containers.  

These were formerly marked Pacific National but wear a Boxcar logo.  The road numbers are 4872 and 4890.  

Based on the colours, Boxcar may be a PN brand, but the Boxcar name is still registered to Linfox (from 2000).  

Enjoy!

Green and Gold CMA CGM Box

Never seen this one before and was very lucky to get a shot of it between the shadows.  

22G1 box CMAU 218780-5 in an Australian CMA CGM livery, maybe marked up for ANL?

If anyone knows the story behind this box, please leave a comment.

Enjoy!

Manildra MGFH in Grain

A number of MGFH hoppers have been converted for grain operation.  A yellow square with a black G is on some of them.

Also managed to get a shot of 1738 which has the face of Ron 'Fox' Bennett painted by Guido Van Helten.

Enjoy!

NR66 and New Toll Reefers

Managed my first shots of NR66 still with the Movember sticker on the front.  Guess PN will get another year out of it!

Also in the consist was a 40+ SCFU Reefer.  A block of these in the 821500 series have been remarked for Toll Shipping with the highest one seen so far being TSHR 2141.  

Enjoy!

MSC Shipping Containers

A few new MSC shipping containers on the Visy train the other day. 

The brown ones with black MSC look odd, and are Florens lease containers.   

FFAU marked 45G1 container.

Another FFAU marked 45G1 container.

MSMU is a new code for MSC container.  This one is very new!

Enjoy!

QLD 2020 - Linfox Containers

I spent some time around Brisbane during Christmas 2020 and haven't posted any shots so far.  Here is a selection of Linfox boxes, may of which were previously Aurizon, pus a few other bits and pieces.

Class leader 2801 at Dakabin

ABLK bulker.

Another ABLK bulker and a former QRN 40ft Seacell

A former Aurizon 40+ Reefer and a 10ft side door loaded on a BCZY.

A 20+ ATRF reefer and another seacell loaded on a BEZY.

Another AFRF 40+ Reefer plus a former QRN QLST side door.

Double stacked K&S KTES class steel carriers.  From memory, these units have extendable ends to go out several more feet in length.

Recently repainted QREC 707156-4.  Based on the number, this was probably a former SCF bulk container.  

Seacell QRFE 400825-8.  These are starting to get a bit tired.

Another former SCF container, QRNG 707251-8, which are used for glass traffic.

Reefer QRRF 480035-0.  This is possibly a lease unit so hasn't been marked with the Linfox branding.

Another bulker, QRTBS 01262-5.  The fifth letter being 'S' stood for 'Spuds' as they carried potatoes.  The 'S' went over the top of the first number in the container code.   

A former Intermodal Solutions side door, this one is now owned by Royal Wolf.  This would have formerly been an ISHU box.

A CS Leasing SLZU flatrack set up for carrying steel traffic.

Enjoy!
