Dajarra, Queensland

Dajarra is a rural town and a locality in the Shire of Cloncurry, Queensland, Australia.

This line was intended as part of the proposed Great Western Railway which would connect Sydney in New South Wales through to Darwin in the Northern Territory; however, the next section of the line from Dajarra towards Camooweal was started but never completed.

[5] Dajarra once had importance as a railhead for the cattle industry, the railway giving connection to the ports and markets of the east coast of Australia.

The mining company has assisted the community in developing a better water supply for the town.

[18] An Aboriginal language is taught at the school, along with how to make boomerangs, what wood to use and what timber is best for didgeridoos.

[4] Spinifex State College has boarding facilities in Healy, Mount Isa.
