XR557 and XR559 are the locos on the grain train and last night about 1100 the ballast train was heard leaving Bendigo(i think) then at about 0345 it was heard leaving again.

The grain train was ready to depart after the 1428 pass left but i get the feeling they would had to wait for the 1300 from Swanhill to clear the single track section.

The down grain was seen deaprting Bendigo yesty arvo at 15 30 with the 2 x XR's.
It arrived back tonight at 17 50.
Just now ( 21 55) he 2 x T's have passed Epsom, both on the front, so probably heading south to ballast and not return.
It didn't run at all Wed night, but Tues night it went through around 23 30, and didn't return until just after 05 00 through Bendigo. The down empty cars to Echuca were about 10 mins late that morning.
