2 Vintage East-West Express: Terowie to Port Augusta Passenger | ||
A scenario in the SAR Peterborough Base Session v2.0 This scenario has been updated in Base Session v2.0. For the original v1.0 scenario, click here |
A limited stop passenger service from Terowie to Quorn. |
The Historical Bit
From 1917 to 1932 the Terowie-Peterborough-Quorn-Port Augusta Line was a vital part of the transcontinental rail link between Sydney, NSW on the east coast and Perth, WA on the west coast. The South Australian Railways provided an express passenger service, the East-West Express, that ran between Terowie and Port Augusta via Quorn. The name "East-West" came from its role in connecting the eastern side of the continent to the western side - in reality the service ran mostly North-South. The return service, from Port Augusta to Terowie, was called the West-East Express. At Terowie it connected with broad gauge (5ft 3in - 1600mm) services from Adelaide. At Peterborough it connected with narrow gauge services from Broken Hill where there was a standard gauge (4ft 8½in - 1435mm) connection from Sydney. At Quorn it connected with narrow gauge services from the Central Australia Railway . At Port Augusta it connected with the standard gauge Trans Continental Railway to Kalgoolie, where there was a narrow gauge connection to Perth. Passengers making the entire trip from Sydney to Perth would:-
The entire journey, from coast to coast, could take 6 days. In 1932 a more direct broad gauge line from Adelaide to Port Augusta via Port Pirie was completed. This cut nearly 70 miles (113km) off the journey. The East-West Express then ran as a broad gauge service from Adelaide directly to Port Augusta although an express passenger service continued to run between Terowie and Port Augusta until 1937. In 1970 the narrow and broad gauge lines from Broken Hill to Port Pirie, Port Pirie to Port Augusta and Kalgoolie to Perth were converted to standard gauge, making an unbroken standard gauge line from coast to coast. This was followed a few years later by the conversion of the broad gauge line from Adelaide to Port Pirie to standard gauge. Today passengers can board a luxury train, the Indian Pacific, in Sydney and travel the entire distance to Perth via Adelaide in 3 days without leaving the train or changing gauge. |
