Info

The maximum grade(not compensated for horizontal alignment) that a southbound (Up) train will encounter is 1 in 140 whilst for an northbound (Down) train the maximum grade is 1 in 140. Existing minimum nominal horizontal curve radii are as follows :- running line 480 m Fencing along this corridor complements adjacent land usage and is at the following standard, poor (25 %) and good (75 %). Fencing will be maintained at its current standard. Horizontal radius for new or upgrade works on this System is as follows :- running line 2170 m 160 km/h running 1910 m 150 km/h running 1662 m 140 km/h running 1432 m 130 km/h running 1221 m 120 km/h running 1026 m 110 km/h running 848 m 100 km/h running 687 m 90 km/h running 542 m 80 km/h running balloon loop 300 m minimum radius siding and depot 140 m DESCRIPTION OF THE TRACK The track on this system is a mix of 60 kg/m, 53 kg/m, 50 kg/m, 47 kg/m and 41 kg/m rail and timber, steel and concrete sleepers on crushed rock ballast. The rails are continuously welded (CWR). Speeds through the curved leg of turnouts are governed by the angle of that turnout ie. 1 in 12 25 km/h 1 in 16 50 km/h 1 in 25 80 km/h In general, curves (with the exception of turnout curves) are transitioned. Preliminary Track Data and Grade Diagrams for the following major route are included in Appendix E.

Nambour - Gladstone (SUR 442 Sheets 3 to 24) Rocklands - Rockhampton (SUR 442 Sheet 29) Working Plan and Section drawings are available on the CD version of this Information Pack. These drawings are issued and accepted for use by potential railway operators subject to the following: “QR does not warrant the fitness for purpose or accuracy of this information” OVERHEAD LINE EQUIPMENT The North Coast Line System b e t w e e n N a m b o u r a n d Rockhampton is electrified by an autotransformer system with the overhead line equipment operating at 25 000 volts, 50 Hertz, alternating supply (25 kV, 50 Hz, ac). Distribution is via a contact wire suspended from a catenary wire and these two wires are held in place by supporting structures to maintain ideal pantograph/contact wire interaction. Typically, the autotransformer system also uses a 25 kV AC feeder wire run on the back of the supporting structure which is used for voltage support throughout the electrified network. The dual wire distribution system is automatically tensioned to maintain a constant wire tension and requires a pantograph uplift force of 80 N ± 10 N for smooth sparkless current collection. Typically on the North Coast Line, the traction system uses both rails for return current.
