The most notable and most photographed feature of Black Rock is the Black Rock Bridge about 2kms south (towards Peterborough). It is only a few metres in height above a flood plain but at 241 m (792 ft) long it is the longest bridge in the Division.
The line from Peterborough to Eurelia was closed to normal traffic in 1988 and was fully closed in 2002. Most of the track was removed in 2008. Black Rock station yard and Black Rock Bridge are two of the few places on the line where the track has been preserved.
