Designed, built and working without shutting the station down. The build was staged so the old yards kept working while the new ones went in alongside; once the new yards were running, the old ones were partly demolished and new holding yards finished the job. A traditional teardrop force feeds a curved snake race, a 5-way pound draft handles up to 500 head, and a purpose-built calf race sits right beside the main working area. The bugle-shaped layout keeps cattle flowing. Holding capacity is 1,000 to 1,500 head, or 200 to 300 head for stays longer than 24 hours.
