Grain Train in the Suburbs - The Kensington Shunt!

The Kensington flour mill is one of the last rail-served industries in the Melbourne suburban area, and the only one that involves shunting in full public view alongside a busy suburban line. The train is operated by Southern Shorthaul Railroad (SSR), using a mixture of ancient EMD diesel locomotives of the S, B, P and T class.
