It certainly threw all the trains into chaos! PN and SCT had trains hanging
around everywhere waiting to go west, and I bet the same happened in Perth.
I think the line is open again now.
Apparently the PN crew are ok, but having seen the pics PN is lucky that the
container which ended up on the roof of the crew van was a relatively light
curtain-sided one since if it was a heavy full-steel box container, the
outcome crew-wise might have been unpleasant. It brings the process of relay
working into review though, esp. with PN's 3-person relaying.
