Hiivr Rail autonomous wagon world-first trial

Arc Infrastructure is pleased to announce the successful mainline trial of the Hiivr Rail autonomous wagon this week in a world-first for the prototype. The trials took place between Kenwick and Forrestfield, commencing from Arc’s Kenwick Rail Freight Facility (KRFF, the location of the Kenwick IMT), where the wagon is stored, and travelling on the mainline towards the Tonkin Highway road over rail bridge at Forrestfield, and is the first time the Hiivr Rail wagon has moved outside the KRFF onto the freight rail network.

This is so embarrassing. Imagine if this money was actually spent maintaining the rail network or giving a leg up to the rail heritage sector, instead of blowing it on this boondoggle...
