It's a not tilt train. Couple of diesel stinkers at Roma Street. Not sure where they're off to but it'll be at least a thousand kilometres. #RailJourney #trains #Brisbane

@david I don't thiiiink these ones go to Cairns, do they? There's the diesel tilt train for that. My guess is Mount Isa or Longreach.

@Ben @david @ash QR don't run any freight services in Queensland any more (actually they may still run some cattle services). That'll be the Spirit of the Outback that goes to Longreach.

@Ben @david @ash QR's freight operations got sold off quite some time ago. Initially it became QR National and then rebranded to Aurizon. There's still plenty of freight that goes by rail up the coast from Brisbane just none of it operated by QR.
