BAROSSA RAIL SERVICE

In reply to the Hon. D.G.E. HOOD (19 June 2008).

The Hon. G.E. GAGO (Minister for State/Local Government Relations, Minister for the Status of Women, Minister for Consumer Affairs, Minister for Government Enterprises, Minister Assisting the Minister for Transport, Infrastructure and Energy): The Minister for Transport has advised that:

1 TransAdelaide has advised that it has no knowledge of the report in question.

2 No.

3 Genesee Wyoming Australia (GWA) purchased the rail track and infrastructure assets of the former Australian National Railway Commission (ANRC) from the Federal Government when they sold ANRC in 1998.

I am advised that the old dilapidated station building at Nuriootpa, which is owned by GWA is in a dangerous condition due to vandalism. The building also contains asbestos. GWA has contacted the relevant council to arrange demolition.
