Two "NR class" locomotives, both still wearing their original "National Rail Corporation" livery lift a long steel train from Dynon freight yards (Melbourne). The train consists of various type of steel carrying wagons including "butterbox" containers, open wagons with and without tarps, coil steel carriers, sheet steel wagons, and tilting wagons designed to carry "out of gauge" flat steel loads.
fantastic video!

The wagon with the tarp over it will most likely be carrying some form of long steel items that need protection from the rain, etc. The "16mm" sign on the side of the wagon makes me think it's carrying reinforcing bars (aka rebar or reo-rod) as 16mm is one of the standard sizes for these rods. But unless we can peak under that tarp we'll never know for sure.
