GWI Signs Agreement to Acquire FreightLink

Documents

Genesee & Wyoming Australia (GWA) operates over nearly 5,000 kilometres of track, providing intrastate haulage of bulk commodities (including grain, steel, gypsum, and minerals) to key industries as well as short haul shunting and terminal operations. It is also a major supplier of contracted services, such as locomotives, wagons and crews to freight forwarders and infrastructure service providers operating on the interstate rail network.

Genesee & Wyoming Australia has approximately 200 employees, 77 locomotives, and 575 wagons.

Genesee & Wyoming Australia Pty Ltd was formed in June 2006 after GWI and its Australian joint venture partner, Wesfarmers Limited,  sold  their Western Australia operations and certain other assets of the Australian Railroad Group (ARG). GWI purchased Wesfarmers' 50 percent ownership interest in ARG's remaining operations, which are principally located in South Australia and the Northern Territory. The Adelaide-based business was renamed Genesee & Wyoming Australia Pty Ltd and is a 100 percent-owned subsidiary.

In June 2010, GWI signed an agreement to acquire the assets of FreightLink, which owns and operates the 1,400-mile Tarcoola to Darwin railway. Once the transaction is completed, GWA will be an even more significant member of the Australian rail industry with the operating expertise, safety record and financial strength to serve new customers in central Australia and beyond.

Genesee & Wyoming’s involvement in Australia started in 1997, when GWI Australia Pty. Ltd. acquired the assets of Australian National's freight rail business in the state of South Australia from the Commonwealth of Australia and created Australia Southern Railroad (ASR), a wholly owned subsidiary of GWI Australia. ASR's predecessor incurred substantial losses in 1996, yet, on the first day of operations, ASR turned the business into a profitable enterprise.
