They are two of the biggest billionaires Australia, both accustomed to getting what they want.

What website tycoons want is their own railroads to the coal mines they plan to Galilee Basin in Queensland.

But Newman Government is placed in the unenviable position between billionaires and warned that it wants only a trace.

The common fate of more than $ 15000000000, and no love lost between the two, industry insiders say, to convince the couple to share, one of the biggest challenges in government Newman.

Galilee complicate matters given the Indian billionaire Gautam Adana also wants his railroad to me his mission, while the QR National has shared a song that nobody wants to use.

Vice-Premier Jeff Seeney said yesterday The Courier-Mail that he had written to both Mr and Mrs Palmer Rinehart this week to warn them that a railroad was preferred by the government.

Mr Seeney invited to the powers of the coordinator-managers, the authority to acquire land needed include to use.

Mr and Mrs Palmer Rinehart can legally continue to pur sue their own laws, but they would be left to the mercy of landowners beyond the 500 km route from the mines in the Abbot Point coal terminal. Mr Seeney said he was a “complete debacle,” but the government inherited was placed on a track because it was in the interest of farmers and the environment.

“If all of these solutions were built we would end up with a sort of spaghetti mess of lines on this part of North Queensland,” he said.

Mr Seeney said the job would be to offer savings to all lawyers would have to work hard to do it alone, without the coercive power of government purchases.

Mr Seeney admitted the task of getting the billionaires to adopt not be easy.
