With depots located at Tom Price, Cape Lambert and Dampier (7 Mile), each train comprises up to three locomotives and 240 ore cars stretching to approximately 2.4 kilometres in length with over 50 trains operating per day. Service Trains including Ballast, Rail and Fuel operate to maintain the health of the Railway. We are also applying and adapting technology to improve safety and productivity across our rail network.
Rail
