The Peebinga railway line was a branch railway in the Murray Mallee region of South Australia. It branched from the Barmera railway line at Karoonda and ran generally eastward towards the border of Victoria, terminating at a locality named Peebinga, north of Pinnaroo, and only about short of the border to Victoria.〔 It opened in December 1914 and closed in 1990. ==Route== The railway ran easterly from Karoonda then northeasterly, serving to open up for agriculture the lands between the Pinnaroo line which had opened in 1906 and the Barmera railway line which was still under construction when approval was granted for the Peebinga line. The Peebinga line was long and construction estimated to cost £207,000 plus £56,690 for rolling stock. The net operating loss was forecast as £11,804 per annum however this was considered acceptable for making agriculture possible on of previously undeveloped land. Towns were established along the route with railway stations and schools however none of these have survived as towns.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Property Location Browser (Government Towns layer) )〕 * Nunkeri * Yurgo * Marama (1930 hall remains on Karoonda-Lameroo road) * Kulkami (bulk grain silos on Karoonda-Lameroo road) * Mulpata * Wirha (adjacent to Billiat Road) * Gurrai (bulk grain silos) * Karte * Kringin (adjacent to Peebinga Conservation Park) * Mootatunga (adjacent to Peebinga Conservation Park, west of Browns Well Highway) * Peebinga (bulk grain silos 5 km east of Browns Well Highway) 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「Peebinga railway line」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
