ArrowLeftBtn.png   9   Peterborough to Paratoo Mixed Passenger Freight  ArrowRightBtn.png
A scenario in the SAR Peterborough Base Session
Mixed passenger and freight run from Peterborough to Paratoo. Bottom

 The Historical Bit 
The region between Peterborough and Broken Hill is very sparsely populated - cattle, mining and maintaining the railway were the major activities. Most, or in some cases all, of the houses at the settlements along the line were built for railway track workers and their families.

There was an express passenger service that ran from Port Pirie to Broken Hill but between Peterborough and Broken Hill it only stopped to load water and coal, and to change the loco and crew. Local stopping passenger services were usually provided by a passenger car attached to a freight service. This scenario replicates that service between Peterborough and Paratoo.


Mixed Passenger
 Era:  1920s to 1969
 Duration:  1 hour 40 minutes
 Loco:  SAR T 202 on Peterborough Depot  Car Siding 

Other Available Locos: Loco Roster Label.png

  • SAR T 233 on Peterborough Depot  Loco Road 1 
  • SAR 407 on Peterborough Depot  Repair Shop Road 4 
 Consist:  Attached to SAR T 202: 1 BL Coach, several QLX Box vans, several MTW Flat wagons, 1 Guard Van. Each freight wagon has its destination as part of its name e.g. QLX Nackara indicating its destination is Nackara.
