    My Father lived in Uralla during the 1960's and knew people who had been alive when Frederick Ward was 'bushranging'. He is adamant that Fred was only ever known as 'Thunderbolt', the term 'Captain' was added long after his death in a book written by a novice historian. I remember as a child we all referred to 'Thunderbolt's Rock' just outside of Uralla, never as 'Captain Thunderbolt's Rock'. It was the Bushranger Frank Pearson in far Western NSW, who named himself 'Captain Starlight'.

    No chance of this ever being re-opened, at present there is a new rail link (freight only) being built to the west of this line from Melbourne to South-East Qld, through Albury, Narrabri, Goondiwindi and ending at Kaguru where it meets up with the Coastal line. The Western route makes far more sense as a lot of the route is very flat and towns are few and far between.

    If anyone is interested in doing a similar trip to check out the same railway infrastructure do yourself a favour, take a half day off this line and check out the Railway viaduct in the town of Manilla 45ks Northwest of Tamworth. It is now heritage listed. Guyra cold? not wrong there. Pulled up 3-4 years ago in July, got out of my car and there was some white flakes floating around.

  • @johannusverhoeff4911
    @johannusverhoeff4911 10 месяцев назад

    I hope it will not become a bike trail. It is about time Australia makes small high speed light tilt trains serve the little towns. It is an insult to the rail workers to turn these tracks into bike paths, for the sake of a fade

    The captioning tells the story very plainly. Without a rail service, towns like Tenterfield and Armadale will die off and become *ghost towns* but state governments of both parties couldn't give a shit about any rail services beyond Newcastle or Wollongong.

    • @Harldin

      Sorry 30 years after the rail closed down the City of Armidale (20,000) and Tenterfield are doing fine, there is also a major highway (New England). All the Towns and Cities on the New England Highway and other major routes are doing fine.

    Great job. Really enjoyed this documentary. If they maintained this track and had this line prepped for train services to Brisbane, this may not be too bad to use for the high speed rail link that the government is proposing. Also if any bushfires occur around the corridor of the current Main North Line through Coffs Harbour and Lismore, this line would serve as an alternate route for train services.
