</table>
The broad gauge (5ft3in - 1600mm) line from '''Adelaide''' (the state capital) to '''Terowie''' was built in stages from 1869 to 1880. The narrow gauge (3ft6in - 1067mm) extension to '''Peterborough''' was completed in 1881. '''Terowie''' then became a major break-of-gauge location for freight and passenger traffic between '''Adelaide''' and the '''Transcontinental Railway''' (to '''Sydney''' and '''Perth''') and the '''Central Australia Railway''' (to '''Port Augusta''' and '''Alice Springs''').<br>

After the conversion of the '''Port Pirie-Broken Hill Line''' to standard gauge (4ft8.5in - 1435mm) during 1969-1970 the '''Peterborough-Terowie''' narrow gauge line was converted to dual gauge in 1970 with the addition of a broad gauge track. Eventually all break-of-gauge operations moved to '''Peterborough'''.<br>

The line from '''Adelaide''' to '''Peterborough''', with its dual gauge section from '''Terowie''' to '''Peterborough''', was closed in 1988.
