As demand for rail transport has grown, Australian Rail Track Corporation (ARTC) has turned to digitization to help maintain critical assets, and keep trains moving reliably and safely.
A proposed realignment of rail around Kalgoorlie’s Super Pit gold mine and the development of an intermodal transport facility has been mooted for decades.
Last evening trains were halted due to evacuations around Maroona (the fire did not get anywhere near the rail line) leaving several freight trains stranded on the line.
Travel with the train driver as we take a long journey from Yelta in the far North West of the state of Victoria, Australia right down to Maroona on the interstate line from Melbourne to Adelaide.
