BHP has resumed rail operations between its Pilbara iron ore mines and Port Hedland after the company had to derail a runaway train that severed the critical transport link last week.
A company spokeswoman yesterday said rail operations restarted on Saturday night after wreckage from the train, comprising 268 fully-laden iron ore cars and four locomotives, was cleared from the track on Friday.
The spokeswoman said “additional controls” had been put in place to “ensure safe operations” and that track repair work was progressing well. According to local reports, the company expects to be running at full capacity again within a couple of days.
