ACD class locos, 6048 & 6050 are curving through the hills of Toodyay, with 5mp1 interstate freighter from Melbourne, bound for the Aurizon intermodal terminal at Forrestfield.

The Aurizon TGE intermodals that travel between Melbourne & Perth, never carry the Tronox mineral sands half containers as the Melbourne-Perth Intermodals don't pass near Broken Hill.Unlike the Sydney-Perth TGE intermodals which pass through Broken Hill and carrie the Tronox mineral sands alongside the regular TGE freight.

ACD class locos- one of the UGL manufactured C44aci locomotives.

The train consisting of the locos, the fuel pod, then followed by the Crew barracks car, then the many TGE containers.

Toodyay station, offers a good vantage point for filming, and also ample seating, as the Transwa prospector and the Avon and Merredin link all stop here on their Journeys.

5mp1 arrives on Sunday mornings if on time, this video captures it running a couple hours late.

Only a couple wagons that are double stacked near the front of the train.

Aurizon plans to move their Forrestfield yard to Kewdale alongside pacific national, leaving SCT with Aurizons old Forrestfield terminal.

Both featured locos wear Aurizons bright yellow livery and Orange Aurizon lettering to the side of the locos.

Mostly single stacked wagons on this train.

The locos moving long end to long end.
