3 Gladstone to Wilmington Local Freight |  |
| A scenario in the SAR Peterborough Base Session | ||
| A twice weekly freight service from Gladstone to Wilmington dropping wagons at locations as required. |  |
The Historical Bit
The 1964 Working Timetable for the Wilmington Line contained only two regular freight services through to Wilmington, running on Mondays and Fridays only. An additional service to Wilmington ran only "when required". On Wednesdays there was a freight service to Booleroo Centre, with two additional services available "when required".
The 1982 Working Timetable consisted of a single weekly freight service to Wilmington. By 1984 the freight and livestock facilities at most of the locations along the line had been permanently closed.
The line had no signals beyond Gladstone Yard and train order working was in operation. The line was closed in 1990 and the track has been removed. Most of the track right of way is now a walking and cycling Rail Trail .
