17 Quorn - Hawker Weekly Freight | ||
A scenario in the SAR Peterborough Base Session v2.0 |
The weekly Commonwealth Railways freight service from Quorn to Hawker. |
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 (4ft8.5inch, 1435mm) line to Maree was opened which followed a more direct route bypassing the difficult Flinders Ranges and, as a result, 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.
The Commonwealth Railways, the operator of the Central Australia Railway, ran a weekly freight service on this section until 1972 when the service was cancelled and the line closed. It was the only scheduled service running on the line. They used SAR locos and a mixture of CR and SAR rolling stock.
