trainspotted - 8167 Sydney garbage train

[steptoe]

Just got over the railway crossing before the red lights flashed, so stopped to watch this loco haul 50 to 60 long shipping containers from the Crisps Creek intermodal terminal at Tarago (home of The Loaded Dog Hotel). The driver stopped at the Tarago station for a leak or lunch, seemingly unaware he still had another fifteen containers to pull past the crossing before he was clear, in doing so blocked off the road for ten or fiften minutes and a few cars each way.
This was the garbage train returning to the Clyde terminal in Sydney and comes down every (week?)day from the big smoke to drop Sydneys waste down the old Woodlawn mine now a 'bio-reactor'.

That is a ship load of garbage !
