In 1974 a dedicated train began running from Kilmore East to Westall hauling quarry products. 10 JQX were built for this traffic. In 1977 10 more wagons were built but coded JQF. The first ten were recoded to JQF at this time. The train was known as "The Apex" as it went to and from Apex Quarry near Kilmore East to its unloading point at Westall, later an additional unloading point at Brooklyn was introduced, normally the train had 18 JQF's and a guards van at each end to simplify shunting. | |||||||||||||||||||
