Well I’m not surprised that there has been a train derailment, there has been a lot of concerns on this line for some yrs from mud holes to track issues if you read Rail Digest or on Railpage & I believe that ARTC recently got knock back from the Federal infrastructure fund

Australian intercity rail run-down and unprepared to replace domestic flights after peak oil

Trains on the line were delayed earlier in the day. This accident was preventable.
