    Forgive my cynicism but parts of corporate Australia see the marketing opportunities that the drought has provided and some parts don't. I would place the large rail companies in the latter group.

         As for suitable wagons, I believe PN has a sizeable fleet of ex-FreightVictoria 60ft container flats that still appear to have tie-down hardware in place.

    Plus the banks (until the Royal Commission anyway) ...............

    You really need opens (preferably 75 foot) AOOXs to carry baled hay. Does anyone still use AOOXs in traffic today?
