Our Network

WestNet Rail’s thousands of kilometres of track support in excess of 270,000 train movements and over 50 million tonnes of freight each year, with a total worth of approximately $20 billion. Over $10 billion worth of products are exported through ports connected to our rail network each year.

Our Eastern Goldfields Railway carries 132,000 passengers travelling on over 1100 services per annum, and moves 80% of all general freight from the east coast of Australia.

The diagram below details our current freight task tonnages. Iron ore, bauxite, alumina and grain make up the majority of materials travelling on our network.
