| + | A signal box and a small station building that were originally present on the main line had been removed by the start of the 1960s. After '''Belalie North''' was bypassed by the gauge conversion (1969-70) '''Gumbowie''' at 610m (2001ft) became the highest point in the '''SAR''' system.<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | The main line and crossing loop were converted to dual gauge with the addition of a broad gauge (5ft3in - 1600mm) track to the existing narrow gauge (3ft6in - 1067mm) main line and loop in 1970 but the siding remained narrow gauge only. The '''Peterborough-Terowie Line''' was closed in 1988.<br> | ||
| − | + | Today nothing remains at '''Gumbowie''' to indicate that it was once a railway location. | |
