    The teams manage the rail freight network from Wagin to Katanning and all the way down to Albany.

  • We actively participate in the Great Southern and love getting involved in local initiatives, seeing community projects come to life and supporting local grassroots organisatons. 

    This year we sponsored West Australian Music's (WAM) Sounds of the Great Southern. In the past we've sponsored Sounds of the Goldfields and Sounds of the Wheatbelt.

    Like WAM, we love supporting local talent, an providing skills and opportunities to local communities to allow that talent to be showcased to the world. 

    The Sounds of the Great Southern compilation was launched at a sold out event on Saturday 27 May at Albany Town Hall. 

    The CD featured ten new, original songs which were recorded and released to showcase the diverse breadth of talent in the Great Southern. 

    In recent years we have also been proud sponsors of community groups including the Indigenous Parent Factor Program, enabling the program to reach out to Indigenous parents to positively influence home learning, and have provided donations to St John Ambulance Wickepin as well as local Men's Sheds to aid in facilitating projects led by members of the community.
