24 Peterborough Dieselisation | ||
A scenario in the SAR Peterborough Base Session v2.0 |
Diesel services on the Peterborough-Quorn Line in the 1970s and 80s. |
The Historical Bit
By 1970 the main Port Pirie-Broken Hill Line had been converted to standard gauge (4ft 8½in - 1435mm) which isolated the Peterborough-Quorn Line from the rest of the narrow gauge network.
1970 also saw the removal of steam from Peterborough and all remaining narrow gauge services were operated by SAR 830 class narrow gauge diesels, initially SAR 858, 865, 866 and 867 which were based at Peterborough. By the end of 1970 SAR 865 and 866 were transferred to Gladstone and in 1973 SAR 867 was converted, by bogie exchange, to broad gauge (5ft 3in - 1600mm). This left SAR 858 as the only narrow gauge loco at Peterborough from 1973 to 1988.
The Working Timetable for the 1970s and 80s saw only two narrow gauge return freight services each week. One to Quorn and one to Orroroo.
The Quorn service often terminated at Carrieton due to the lack of goods to transport. The service to Quorn also required a crew change on the return trip at Bruce or Hammond. The relief crew were transported from Peterborough by a rail inspection car (see the scenario Rail Car Inspection Run) with the relieved crew transported back by the same vehicle.
In March 1987 the line from Eurelia to Quorn was closed. This was followed in November 1988 by the closure of line from Peterborough to Eurelia to regular services. The last scheduled revenue runs on the line were to remove grain from the silos at Orroroo in October 1988 (see the scenario Orroroo Grain Run). Special excrusion trains from the Steamtown Peterborough Railway Preservation Society continued to use the line from Peterborough to Eurelia until 2002.
