Site Map Stage 1

To give viewers a better idea of where we are in Stage One of the project, we include this map for your information. Re-sleepering began at Hazelgrove Station and is proceding South for 5km to Oberon. The track work has now reached the Oberon station fence. Unfortunately the restoration work of the line in front of the Oberon Station cannot be completed at present as the current lessees of the station section of the rail corridor have refused access to OTHR members.
There are some areas of track we have to revisit where access was temporarily impossible and work remains to be done on some crossings. From April 2008 track work consists of "Filling the Gaps" in work previously missed due to sleeper shortages, inclement weather, flooding etc.

We could do with some more help so if you are able bodied and can lend a hand, even if only for a few days. Week long camps are advertised on the front page. Ring Bob Conners on 6336 1211 to arrange accommodation and Peter Culley

for detail on the track work program.

Full Report

Track work in May 08 saw the completion of dog spiking north of Rutters Ridge Rd. and 1 in 4 sleepering near Camp 136, wet weather in 2007 having prevented that.
 
 

 

 

 

More work to be done to connect the section from Albion St to the factory.
