<p>Another in a record-breaking series of rail shipments left Mildura last night bound for the port of Melbourne, Wakefield Transport general manager Vicki Krake told <em>Lloyd’s List DCN</em> today (Monday, February 26).</p> <p>Weighing 3.590 tonnes and at 1.2 km in length, the 40 carriages consist of 48 teu of mineral sands, 12 feu reefer boxes of fruit and five feu of wine.</p> <p>Dubbed the “supertrains”, as they are thought to be the maximum that Pacific National could take, they come about due to the conjunction of Sunraysia harvests, which began last week, of fruit and table grapes for South-East and East Asia, wine for the UK and US and B-Max mineral sands road-trained from Broken Hill for export to China.</p> <p>“At the moment they are going every Sunday and Monday,” Ms Krake said, with mineral sands orders for the “next four to five weeks”.</p> <p>The loads are stuffed at Wakefields’s intermodal operation at Marebein.</p> <br />
