Woolooga Rail Bridge

[1] The Woolooga Rail Bridge was built in 1884 and crosses Wide Bay Creek on the Maryborough to Kilkivan branch line.

The section to Kilkivan opened on 6 December 1886 after the completion of the major combined Dickabram rail-road bridge over the Mary River.

Besides a major bridge over the Mary River, the Kilkivan branch crossed Wide Bay Creek three times.
