Coonabarabran line - last train - August 2005

[@RangaTurk]

NSWGR should have built a Coonabarabran to Narrabri railway following the Newell Highway then there would have already been some semblance of "Inland Rail".

What a picturesque branch line. It have doubts it will ever reopen.

Excellent video Bevan, love the wave effect on the old timber bridge when the train is crossing it.

[@jasonthedogcatcher]

Beautiful countryside. Always wanted to visit the Warrumbungles.

The LC3 Morris Commercial is a gem also and well worth the inclusion.

The bridge at 10:03 doesn't look terribly safe.

MrImpossiblyBlack Have a look at the scene at 10.30 I recoded on the same lime in 1998 if you really want to see a dancing bridage. Link is:

Not all that structurally sound

[@kurtisslomka]

Notice when you said 5422 departing now , there were still a lot of wagons in the adjacent siding .. were they left there for rust or did the train shunt back then depart

[@jethrodownunder8546]

I notice the UA-cam header states "Coonabarabran line - last train - August 1995". I assume it was 2005. Sad to see lines go this way, but that's the way the economics goes I suppose

[@jslasher1]

You suppose? Bloody Hell.

[@patcummins6036]

Sad! But that’s progress.

[@philliphaire2557]

I worked on that line just before it was closed down it was a in really bad way the old timber where bad too many & cost millions to do up a lot of good wheat country out there the roads did not look too good either
