Aurizon

The Aurizon team in Mount Isa was recently invited to Barkly Highway State School to talk about staying safe when using level crossings. Our team presented to some 300 students, from Prep to year 6. And we got some terrific questions from the floor about the freight trains they see regularly in their community – how heavy are trains, how long does it take to stop, how fast do they go, is it fun to drive a train? Aurizon is keen to share these incredibly important safety messages, any time of year, but especially as we head into school holidays and the festive season, when many more people are on the roads. You can read about our latest level crossing safety campaign and find a range of resources for your local school or community group here - https://bit.ly/3xkubvB If Aurizon operates in your community and you would like one of our local team to visit a school or community group to talk about safety, please feel free to reach out to us at community@aurizon.com.au Respect the sign. Lives are on the line. #LevelCrossingSafety #Aurizon

As part of White Ribbon Month, our Picton maintenance team participated in the annual Silent White Ribbon March held in Bunbury, Western Australia. The community march aims to raise awareness and help prevent domestic and family violence. Thanks, team, for leading by example and being part of the change. White Ribbon Australia #whiteribbon

This Remembrance Day, Aurizon teams across the country pause to honour our Veterans and remember to remember by observing one minute's silence. At Aurizon, we are proud to have among our ranks many employees who have served in the Defence Force before transitioning to a civilian career with Aurizon. As long as we remember, our service people's legacy won't be forgotten. Lest we forget.

𝗘𝘅𝗰𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗡𝗲𝘄𝘀! Aurizon has commenced railings for Bulk Central’s customer, Northern Iron Pty Ltd, from the Warrego Rehabilitation Project near Tennant Creek, Northern Territory. We’re set to transport up to 1.2 million tonnes of magnetite iron ore annually over a 1,000 km journey from mine to port. With new equipment and facilities at Darwin Port, including two mobile harbour cranes and a stevedoring operation, we now offer an integrated supply chain solution direct to ship. Our investment in central Australia, highlighted by the One Rail acquisition in 2022, underscores our commitment to serving the growing markets for resources, agribusiness, renewable energy, and general freight. The 2,240 km Tarcoola to Darwin railway is a key corridor, directly connecting to the Darwin Port, the closest port to Asia.

Quantum computing is still under development. However, at CQUniversity, we have begun tailoring quantum computing methods with digital twin technologies for specific railway domain applications. I would like to thank Aurizon, the Queensland Quantum Decarbonisation Alliance, and the Queensland Government for their support and funding of this project. https://lnkd.in/gw5xNDf2 Centre for Railway Engineering #quantum #research #battery #digitaltwin #innovation #railway
