Stored 100 tonners

A couple of 100 tonners stored on the line between Ararat and Avoca.  About 32 hoppers (VHNY, VHLY, and VHKY) are all pareked in a row.

Build new around 2001, VHKY 1152 is a similar design to the CFCLA (now GWA) CGAY wagons.

Former VHEF fitted with hungry boards, VHNY 1002 is also stored on the line.

I managed some shots of the SCT Horsham to Port Melbourne service, heading through Vite Vite.

A trailing shot of CSR 002.  One of very few Chinese locos actually in service in Australia. 

The front of the train had two older PQMY wagons.  This one is 4231.

The rest of the train was newer PQKY wagon.ss Most were loaded with very clean Hamburg Sud HASU 40ft containers.
