Tocumwal Branch

Summary

Track: 180.38 km
Stations: 1 / 16 in use

This branch line lies in the south-central part of NSW. The branch is no longer in use, although the track and much of the infrastructure are still in place. It starts from the town of Narrandera on the Junee - Hay branch (still in use), and extends south to Tocumwal on the Victorian border. Here it meets a Victorian gauge line, and in fact Tocumwal was once a break-of-gauge station.

There has been some interest expressed by local government groups in the area in re-opening the line as a private venture, although nothing official has occurred. One impediment is that the crossing of the Murrumbidgee flood plain just to the south of Narrandera involves a number of wooden bridges and viaducts, most of which would have to be replaced.
