'''Terowie's''' only role was as a change of gauge location. Passengers and freight from '''Adelaide''' arrived from the south on the '''broad gauge (5ft 3in)''' line and were transferred to wagons on the '''narrow gauge (3ft 6in)''' line to continue north to '''Peterborough''' and onto destinations on the '''Broken Hill''', '''Trans Continental''' and '''Central Australia''' lines. The reverse arrangement applied to traffic travelling south to '''Adelaide'''.<br>
 +
 +
Passengers simply moved from one platform across to another at the station. Goods and livestock were manually moved from wagons of one gauge on one side of a transfer platform to wagons of the other gauge on the other side, or by gantry crane from one train to the other. Much later a bogie exchange system was introduced to help eliminate the manual handling of freight. By 1970 the broad gauge line was extended to '''Peterborough''' and the role and importance of '''Terowie''' was greatly reduced. By 1988 the line from '''Adelaide''' to '''Peterborough''' was closed.

ArrowLeftBtn.png   14   Terowie Shunter  ArrowRightBtn.png
A scenario in the SAR Peterborough Base Session
Shunting operations in Terowie Yard. Bottom

 The Historical Bit 

Terowie's only role was as a change of gauge location. Passengers and freight from Adelaide arrived from the south on the broad gauge (5ft 3in) line and were transferred to wagons on the narrow gauge (3ft 6in) line to continue north to Peterborough and onto destinations on the Broken Hill, Trans Continental and Central Australia lines. The reverse arrangement applied to traffic travelling south to Adelaide.

Passengers simply moved from one platform across to another at the station. Goods and livestock were manually moved from wagons of one gauge on one side of a transfer platform to wagons of the other gauge on the other side, or by gantry crane from one train to the other. Much later a bogie exchange system was introduced to help eliminate the manual handling of freight. By 1970 the broad gauge line was extended to Peterborough and the role and importance of Terowie was greatly reduced. By 1988 the line from Adelaide to Peterborough was closed.


Terowie Shunter
 Era:  1920s to 1970
 Duration:  50 minutes
 Loco:  The Loco Roster Label.png has locos available at the  Terowie Loco Depot 
 Consist:  To be shunted by the selected loco to/from various locations

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. 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 198 (or just T 198 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 the loco name (SAR T 198) then click the drivers Eye icon Driver Eye.png to take control of the loco
  3. Take a few moments to get your bearings. Click Terowie Data (this link will open in this window) to show the location details and track plans for Terowie. In each location details page:-
    • the Tab HM White.png tab gives an overall summary of each location with a "potted" history (where available).
