Ten locomotives to add haulage capacity


More than AUD 50 million (EUR 33.4 million) for new locos to support growth in high-demand commodities: Aurizon has received the first batch of four locomotives from manufacturer UGL. The remaining six units will be commissioned in coming months to transport copper, lead, zinc, and grain in New South Wales (NSW) and Western Australia (WA).

 

The ten locomotives represent an investment in additional haulage capacity for Aurizon’s Bulk business. Aurizon has several new contracts in NSW.

 

In 2021, Aurizon also acquired APS, which includes an export terminal and ship loading facility for bulk commodities, adjacent to rail infrastructure at the Port of Newcastle. (ben)
