Was just informed that a freight train derailed in Broadmeadow yard this afternoon.
Does anybody know the story?

D-Rail sorry mate just seeing the funny side of your user name with the title of this thread.
It seems it was a pair of CLP/CLF loco's that came off at the entrance to the yard coming off the DOWN main...i am hoping its not on the new Catchpoints and Points (Concrete high speed) that i helped build there or i will be very annoyed.

I saw the two CLF/Ps sitting just after it happened with guys walking around it. I thought it was just a problem with the locos and was going to take a pic but didn't want to be annoying. I found out this morning that they hit the dirt and were re railed around around 2300. They were dragged back on with packing instead of a crane. It was just behind Saddingtons one/two roads in from the down relief jsut up the road from the endeavour centre. Would of made an interesting shot as the AK cars were in the yard just behind.
