Coal ships wait to be loaded at the port in Gladstone
Coal ships wait to be loaded at the port in Gladstone, Queensland January 2, 2011. Torrential rains and flooding are set to cut rail supplies of coal for another week from inland mines to Australia's third-largest coal export terminal Gladstone, forcing the port to run down already-depleted inventories.
