Wheatbelt railway lines of Western Australia
The wheatbelt railway lines of Western Australia are a network of railway lines in Western Australia that have primarily served the Wheatbelt region. Maps of the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR) system in the 1930s show that in the main wheatbelt region, any railway line was within 30 miles of the harvest location, facilitating ease of access to rail transport.
In the current railway management systems, many of the operating lines are primarily for the haulage of grain.〔http://savegrainonrail.com.au/about-the-rail-network/ - noting that ''93% of grain is transported by rail''〕
==1900s==
In 1905 the report of the ''Royal Commission into Immigration in Western Australia'' stated:
All considerable areas of agricultural land must have a 15 mile rail service
In 1947, the ''Royal Commission into Railway management'' stated of the 1905 and after era of construction:
... to construct railways in agricultural areas as cheaply as possible, lines were built with 45 lb. rail sections which practically followed the surface of the ground with (a) earth ballasting (b) half-round timber sleepers (c) providing the bare minimum station facilities only
