Up until 1956 the narrow gauge (3ft6in, 1067mm) '''Central Australia Railway''' from '''Port Augusta''' north to '''Maree''' and on to '''Alice Springs''' ran via '''Quorn''' and '''Hawker'''. In 1956 a new standard gauge (4ft8&#189;inch, 1435mm) line to '''Maree''' was opened which followed a more direct route bypassing the difficult '''Flinders Ranges''', '''Quorn''' and '''Hawker'''. The narrow gauge line sections from '''Port Augusta''' to '''Quorn''' and from '''Hawker''' to '''Maree''' were closed leaving only the section between '''Quorn''' and '''Hawker''' open for traffic. This section survived because a mine near '''Hawker''' needed to send its ore for processing and the local dirt roads were totally unsuitable for the task.<br>
  
By 1970 the main <span style="color: white; background-color: black; font-weight: 700;">&#160;Port&#160;Pirie-Broken &#160;Hill&#160;Line&#160;</span> had been converted to standard gauge (4ft 8&#189;in - 1435mm) which isolated the <span style="color: white; background-color: black; font-weight: 700;">&#160;Peterborough-Quorn Line&#160;</span> from the rest of the narrow gauge network.
+
The '''Commonwealth Railways (CR)''', the operator of the '''Central Australia Railway''', ran a weekly freight service between '''Quorn''' and '''Hawker''' using '''SAR''' locos and a mixture of '''CR''' and '''SAR''' rolling stock. '''SAR T 44''' was based at '''Quorn''' and was a regular sight on this run. It was the only scheduled service running on the line although a second "when required" freight service was provided in the timetable. In 1972 the service was cancelled and the line was closed.  
 
+
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.<br>
+
 
+
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'''.<br>
+
 
+
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 '''[[SAR Scenario Rail Car Inspection Run|Rail Car Inspection Run]]''') with the relieved crew transported back by the same vehicle.<br>
+
 
+
In March 1987 the line from '''Eurelia''' to '''Quorn''' was closed. This was followed in November 1988 by the closure of the remaining 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 '''[[SAR Scenario Orroroo Grain|Orroroo Grain Run]]'''). Special excrusion trains from the '''Steamtown Peterborough Railway Preservation Society''' continued to use the line from '''Peterborough''' to '''Eurelia''' until 2002. Most of the line has since been removed.

#:'''Note:''' The <span style="font-weight: 700; color: white; background-color: black;">&#160;WYE&#160;</span> was actually removed in the 1930s so in reality the loco would have to run "long nose first" back to '''Peterborough''' (or "long nose first" up to '''Orroroo'''). As '''SAR 858''' was the only narrow gauge loco based at '''Peterborough''' from 1973, this problem could not be solved by double-heading with another locomotive, but it is still an option in this scenario

Revision as of 19:57, 2 December 2022

ArrowLeftBtn.png   26   Quorn - Hawker Weekly Freight  ArrowRightBtn.png
A scenario in the SAR Peterborough Base Session v2.0
The weekly Commonwealth Railways freight service from Quorn to Hawker. Bottom

 The Historical Bit 
Up until 1956 the narrow gauge (3ft6in, 1067mm) Central Australia Railway from Port Augusta north to Maree and on to Alice Springs ran via Quorn and Hawker. In 1956 a new standard gauge (4ft8½inch, 1435mm) line to Maree was opened which followed a more direct route bypassing the difficult Flinders Ranges, Quorn and Hawker. The narrow gauge line sections from Port Augusta to Quorn and from Hawker to Maree were closed leaving only the section between Quorn and Hawker open for traffic. This section survived because a mine near Hawker needed to send its ore for processing and the local dirt roads were totally unsuitable for the task.

The Commonwealth Railways (CR), the operator of the Central Australia Railway, ran a weekly freight service between Quorn and Hawker using SAR locos and a mixture of CR and SAR rolling stock. SAR T 44 was based at Quorn and was a regular sight on this run. It was the only scheduled service running on the line although a second "when required" freight service was provided in the timetable. In 1972 the service was cancelled and the line was closed.


File:SAR Hawker Freight.png
 Era:  1956 to 1972
 Duration:  Hawker: x hours xx minutes
Return: y hours yy minutes
 Loco:  SAR T 44 at Quorn  Loco Depot 
The Loco Roster Label.png has other suitable locos available at the  Quorn Loco Depot 
 Consist:  Stored on Quorn  Goods Siding 1  to be attached to the selected loco:-
The wagons have been placed in the order of their destinations with Willochra at the front (loco) end and Hawker at the rear (guard van) end. Each wagon has its destination as part of its name e.g. NGS Gordon indicating that its destination is Gordon.

Location Index

Each location in the layout has a detailed set of track diagrams that provide a variety of useful information

The  Getting Started  guide below gives a summary of what is available.

To display this information click any Location Index graphic, or go to the bottom of the page for all the session links (all links will open in this window).


Getting Started:
  1. If you have already closed the opening message window then the first step is to pause the session by pressing the  P  key.
  2. If you decide to set the session clock to a different starting time then follow the instructions shown in the Orders section
  3. Next locate your loco. Either:-
    • Open the Finder Tool (press  Ctrl   F ) and type, in the Name field, the name of your selected loco, for example SAR T 44 (or just T 44 which should be enough), then click the tick icon, OR
    • Open the Driver List (bottom left of the screen) and then scroll through the list to find either:-
    • the loco name' ('e.g. SAR T 44) OR
    • the driver icon (named Driver 44) - this is a non-animated icon
    then click the drivers Eye icon Driver Eye.png to take control of the loco.
  4. Take a few moments to get your bearings. Click Quorn Data (this link will open in this window) to show the location details and track plans for Quorn. In each location details page:-
    • the Tab HM White.png tab gives an overall summary of each location with a "potted" history (where available).
    • the Tab TM Grey.png tab reveals the invisible TM Track Marks for Drive To commands.
    • the Tab IN Grey.png tab lists all active industries and their commodities.
    • the Tab SW Grey.png tab describes the names, locations and settings of all junction switches as well as some switch sets you may want to use.
  5. Each location details page has direct links to the adjacent locations so you can explore along the route.
  6. When you are ready to start, reload the Peterborough Base Session page (click the Scenarios button on your current location page) and select this Scenario again or just use the Back button on your browser - whichever is quicker.
  7. Switch back to Trainz Driver Mode
  8. Close the opening message window and, if Pause is shown on the screen, press the  P  key to start the session.
