64.2 Computation

Except in the case of timber or as otherwise provided, where the use of a check wagon or a bogie wagon is necessary, owing to the length or other nature of goods whereby they cannot be loaded in a four wheeled wagon, the following methods of charging shall apply:

A consignment of 7.0 tonnes or more, loaded on a bogie wagon, or loaded on a four wheeled wagon and one check wagon provided.

A consignment of less than 7.0 tonnes loaded on a bogie wagon, or loaded on a four wheeled wagon and one check wagon provided.

Check wagons additional to the wagons specified above.

No extra charge shall be made on account of the check wagon or bogie wagon being necessary.

Charged as for 7.0 tonnes at the appropriate rate for the commodity.

Charged for the additional check wagons used.

64.3 Grouping consignments

Separate consignments loaded on the same bogie wagon, or on a four wheeled wagon plus a check wagon, by the same or different consignors at the one forwarding station to the same or different consignees at the one destination station shall be grouped for the purpose of calculating the minimum of 7.0 tonnes as provided in clause 64.2. Any weight deficiency to make up the minimum is to be apportioned equally between the consignments which required the use of such wagon(s).

64.4 Special wagons

64.4.1 Empty petrol tank wagons: Empty petrol tank wagons shall be conveyed under the provisions of clause 54.4.

64.4.2 Plate glass: Consignments loaded on wagons specially designed for the carriage of plate glass shall be charged according to the classified rate for β€œglass plate”, as provided in clause 73.

64.4.3 Well wagons: Well wagons (Ud and Udk class) are specially designed for the conveyance of unusually heavy and/or bulky articles. Where, owing to the nature of the goods, the use of a well wagon is required, railage charges shall be computed on the actual weight or measurement at the appropriate classified rate, or at the rate of $3.60 per loaded wagon kilometre, whichever is the greater, with a minimum charge per wagon of $507.43. The costs of any material supplied, and the costs incurred where it is necessary for an employee of the Corporation to specially accompany the load during transit, owing to the nature of the goods shall be an additional charge.
