Bumberry Scene
8135 and 48201 lead 8835, a Pacific National empty Manildra to Parkes grain train.
While Pacific National grain trains have been a common scene in Central West NSW, upcoming changes to the Manildra Group rail contract may consign this scene to history. From 1 November 2024, Southern Shorthaul Railroad will take over the operation of Manildra Group grain services from Pacific National. The new operating model will utilise locomotives and rollingstock owned by Manildra Group. Pacific National will continue to operate Graincorp trains in NSW and Victoria.
