The line, which was opened on 21 September 1908,〔(Barraba branch ) - NSWrail.net〕 ran for north along the Manilla valley to the town of Barraba from the Main North railway line at West Tamworth. The railway line crossed the Namoi River at Manilla over a large viaduct and crosses the Peel River just before Attunga. In the 1970s, the Barraba line was served by the unique railmotor, CHP38 (also known as Creamy Kate).〔''Return Trip to Barraba in CHP38'' Blackwell, Greg Australian Railway Historical Society Bulletin, July, 2000 pp259-266〕 At that period, large quantities of asbestos was railed from Barraba in containers for export. The line is now open for only for use as grain wagon storage.〔 A stop block is in place at Dampier Street, Tamworth and the line was damaged by flood along Wallamore Road on 29 November 2008. == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Barraba railway line」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
