 Chapter 5: The Railway Age, 1874-1920
The Queensland Railways were not really deficient until exposed to the stress of the Pacific War between 1941 and 1945, when it became clear that their light standards were as inadequate for the defence of the country as they were for intense economic development.
The new railways carried goods and passengers far more economically than the coaches and drays they replaced, but the difference in speed was not as dramatic as it had been in the wilder terrain of the eastern colonies.
However, such had been the confusion of railway policy in the colony, that, as a state in the new Commonwealth, its railways would be rebuilt and their uses redefined far more than was the case elsewhere in Australia.

Railways were needed to bring wheat and mining produce to Port Augusta and Adelaide, but these early lines were seen as the start of a transcontinental line that would foster the development of mining, tropical agriculture and trade with Asia.
By 1891, South Australia had spent 10 million on railways, the colony's bonded debt was 21.5 million pounds, two million of which was incurred in the Territory, and the completion of the northern line coincided with growing disillusionment with its northern colony.
Canada's 3000 mile transcontinental railway was built by a Montreal syndicate and funded by granting large tracts of land to the developers.

Central station, Sydney's main train station, is in the south of the city centre, and the main bus terminal is located outside it.
Sydney wasn't a planned city and its layout is further complicated by its hills and the numerous inlets of the harbour, its focal point.
Sydney is located 33 degrees 55' south of the equator with similar latitude to Cape Town and Buenos Aires in the Southern Hemisphere, and Los Angeles, Casablanca and Beirut in the Northern Hemisphere.

The station is Rydalmere, a station on the Sydney suburban network located on the Carlingford branch that ran from Clyde (in sydney's west) to Carlingford.
This monster was built in 1900 to operate on the Northeast Dundas Tramway, a 2' gauge tramway on the west coast of Tasmania.
At that time maintenance was not a high priority and one Sydney newspaper took great delight in publishing a story about the numerous times that the local NRMA (automobile club) service had to be called to jump start the units at Richmond for their first trip of the day.

The railway of 1881 bisected the town, reducing the importance of river transport and resulting in the development of new commercial centre near the railway station.
Its leaders, the Sydney writer Percy Reginald ‘Inky’ Stephensen and businessman William John Miles, were tolerated by the Right in the 1930s because of their anti-communism; they were, however, increasingly sympathetic toward the totalitarian governments of Germany, Italy and Japan as the Second World War approached.
Sydney was lost with its entire complement of 645 officers and men.
