Two new coal ship-loaders arrived in the Port of Newcastle.
The coal ship loaders are to be installed at the Carrington coal terminal over the coming months, with the three existing loaders to be taken away.
The coal loader's were built in Shanghai and shipped from China.
Despite anti-coal activist's continuing to push to have the Carrington loader shut down due to its proximity to housing, the implementation of the new ship loaders shows Port Waratah Coal Service's (PWC's) intentions to keep the terminal operating.
PWCs is licensed to export 145 million tonnes of coal a year -120 million tonnes from Kooragang and 25 million tonnes from Carrington.
