There is an interesting article in Trains magazine for July 2001 beginning on page 56 concerning the Louisiana and Delta short line railroad. A major portion of L&D's business is bringing flat cars with intermodal containers full of sugar cane to the M. A. Patout & Sons sugar mill and taking molasses and "green" sugar from the mill in tank and covered hopper cars respectively. I'm not sure how this might relate to the Australian sugar industry, but I found the article interesting. The Lousiana and Delta owned about 15 ex-Santa Fe CF-7 locomotives which happen to be of interest to me. thanks, Roger
