G-Class G512 (model JT26C-2SS)
Title:  G-Class G512 (model JT26C-2SS)
Description:  G-Class unit G512 sitting by the Goulburn depot. The 33 G-class units were built by Clyde/GM in the mid-to-late '80s for the Victoria RWY.

This example wears the markings of Specialized Container Transport Co (SCT) although it's actually owned by Chicago Freight Car Leasing-Australia (CFCLA)

Grain at Goulburn
Title:  Grain at Goulburn
Description:  Only a few minutes after the morning Canberra Xpolrer DMU has departed and just before the daily Sydney-Melbourne XPT arrives the dispatcier slips an "up" Pacific National grain train through Goulburn NSW behind the standard pair of 81-class units. Australian railroads have a delightful mix of English and American themes. The station architecture and track design is right out of the UK. Rolling stock and locomotives are generally based on US styles. Note the water spout just beyond the platform- steam didn't quit here until the early '70s and still makes an occasional appearaoce as part of a heritage event.
