A picture I took back in January 2011. Unfortunately you can't see here that road number 5 (the track that leads into the freight shed) has recently been disconnected from Bairnsdale yard. You can see that roads 3 and 4 have recently had work performed on it. Only roads 1 & 2 are currently in service. Road 1 services the platform whilst road 2 is used by the locomotive to run around its consist. Road 0 has been booked out of service due to rail buckling caused during an extreme heat wave (I believe it was during the period that Black Saturday occurred, February 2009).
I will get travelling up to Bairnsdale in January 2013 and I will post some more recent images.
