30.4, train derailments

Australia: two train derailments affected both the Dalrymple Bay and the Hay Point Coal Terminals. The first derailment occurred at Jilalan, the train holding yard which services both of the coal terminals. This derailment stopped any trains getting through to either terminal therefore no trains could be unloaded at DBCT or Hay Point. It was expected this would take around 24 hours to clear. The second derailment occurred on the Saraji/Peak Downs Line. This affected delivery of some BM Alliance cargoes to the Hay Point Terminal. It was expected this derailment would take around 72 hours to clear. Some vessels scheduled to load at Hay Point will be affected.
