IP was to be diverted via the escarpment and Stockingbal. Can anyone say if it actually did this?
I did see the Indian Pacific at Central station on Saturday so it must have been diverted.
The IP ran via the south. It was through Goulburn about 0900.

Changes to Indian Pacific route - Oct 2013
Due to the ongoing bushfires across New South Wales, Great Southern Rail has made some necessary changes to the Indian Pacific route.
Access restrictions have been placed on the Indian Pacific’s usual western rail path via Lithgow, Mount Victoria and Katoomba.
Until further notice, the Indian Pacific will take an alternative southerly route through New South Wales. Please note this may result in some delays depending on the service.
Should your journey be cancelled or significantly delayed by these circumstances, Great Southern Rail will contact you at the earliest opportunity.
