Part 2. (Archival)
The elimination of the steam locomotive in New South Wales was completed by early 1973. The next few years saw the decommissioning of steam maintenance facilities, including workshops, loco depots, water storage tanks and a host of other infrastructure associated with the steam era. Successively over the next decade or so, many branch lines were closed, as well as a number of cross country routes that linked the main arteries or interstate lines. In this second of the “Steam in New South Wales” series, we have the opportunity to again look back at steam workings of the 1960’s. Contemporary scenes are shown to show comparison with what was once a busy and labour intensive rail system.
