Other interesting info:

All export trains are loaded on the Colliery via FEL’s onto a conveyor belt transecting the two export stockpiles. Currently 3 Liebherr FEL machines are used for these trains and the average time taken to load one of these trains is 6.8 hours. This conveyor feeds a silo situated directly over the rail line and weighbridge. Wagons are loaded (58t each) in 100 truck blocktrains (5.8kt). The Colliery locomotives take these wagons to the Bezuidenhoutsrus Siding approx 5,5km away, which is linked to the main RBCT rail line.
