Brookfield Rail is a rail infrastructure owner and access provider in Western Australia with a long-term lease on the network from the Government of Western Australia. Brookfield Rail operates approximately 5,100 km of standard, narrow and dual gauge rail infrastructure in the southern half of WA, which serves as a crucial transport link in the region. ==History==
In December 2000, the State Government privatised Westrail, with the Australian Railroad Group, a 50/50 joint venture between United States rail operator Genesee & Wyoming and Australian rural services company Wesfarmers, the successful bidder. Included in the sale was a 49-year lease on the below rail infrastructure network.〔"Australian Railroad Group buys Westrail freight" ''Railway Digest'' December 2000 page 23〕〔"G&W wins Westrail Freight" ''Railway Gazette International'' volume 156 issue 12 December 2000 page 788〕〔(Company History ) Wesfarmers〕 This part of the business was rebranded as WestNet Rail.〔"Intelligence" ''Railway Gazette International'' volume 157 issue 1 January 2001 page 12〕 On 1 June 2006 Australian Railroad Group was sold with the above rail rolling stock and terminal assets passing to QR National, and the below rail infrastructure business to Babcock & Brown Infrastructure.〔(ACCC approves QR and Babcock bid for ARG ) ''Rail Express'' 31 March 2006〕〔(Queensland Rail and Babcock & Brown's proposed acquisition of certain assests from Australian Railroad Group ) Australian Competition & Consumer Commission 17 May 2006〕〔"Intelligence" ''Railway Gazette International'' volume 162 issue 7 July 2006 page 380〕 Initially Babcock & Brown held a 51% shareholding, the remaining 49% being held by minority shareholders with Babcock & Brown having an option to increase its holding.〔"Intelligence" ''Railway Gazette International'' volume 163 issue 7 July 2007 page 334〕 In March 2008 Babcock & Brown increased its shareholding to 76%.〔"Intelligence" ''Railway Gazette International'' volume 164 issue 5 May 2008 page 282〕 It later took full ownership.
