Walhalla railway line

The line ran from Moe to the former gold-mining town and popular tourist destination of Walhalla.

After the closure of the Walhalla mines, substantial timber traffic was carried from sawmills in the Erica area until the late 1940s.

The Thomson River Railway Bridge is listed on the Register of the National Estate.

The centre span had been part of a road bridge over the Murray River at Tocumwal (NSW).

By this time the roadbed was a totally overgrown jungle of blackberries and heavy scrub, with numerous sections of the trackbed having collapsed and all being derelict except one of the bridges.

A special train poses on a bridge of the Long Tunnel Extended timber tramway built to supply wood to the mines at Walhalla. The occasion, a visit by the State Governor in February 1907, shows passengers in ties and hats sitting on empty log trucks, along with the Bagnall 0-4-0ST locomotive and its crew in the foreground.
