Grain on Rail Again Railway trucks full of grain are once again travelling through Warwick on their way to Brisbane. The South-west line which runs from Brisbane, through Toowoomba then Warwick, Goondiwindi and all points further west, has seen very little freight for some years now while Queensland Rail has concentrated on carrying coal from further north to Gladstone for export. I’m not knocking the coal industry, Australian coal is of excellent quality, burns very hot which makes it suitable for steel manufacture, has less contaminants than most other coal and customers in India and other countries which still depend on coal-fired power stations for base-load electricity, need it.
