Northbound loaded ore train headed by Robe unit 9434 at Galah on the East Mainline - Tom Price Line.The rear portion of the train is still rolling down the 2% Chichester Ranges pushing hard on the locomotives.The resistor grid fans are screaming as the locomotives are in full dynamic brake mode retarding the speed of the 234 car train.
