    What a trip...... I mentioned following the old rail bed in our MINI. but I do not recall ever going through any cuttings at all? So we must have "chickened out" only a very short distance into the trip.. Probably less than only 5 or 6 minutes into the video? There would not have been any bridges left back in 1975 either.. So we could not have gone far along? The King River is tidal isn't it? We must have seen it a 'low tide' as the river at the start of the video looked to be much wider than what I remember? Our old pictures show it much lower and very muddy, I'm guessing at "low tide".. Can you imagine hauling the big iron bridge upstream on barges from Strahan, and getting it in place in the 1800's ? What a job? The old timers must have been 'Supermen' in their day? Thanks for showing us this video.. Hard to believe that Teepookana was once a 'port on the river' to unload trains to water craft? (probably barges) for the remainder of the journey to Regatta Point... I doubt if the river craft would been classed as "Ships" .. I'm guessing that the "Ships" would never have gone beyond Macquarie Harbour ? No wonder that the bridge was installed and the track continued on to the salt water port facility? It would have cut out a lot of 'double-handling' the ore on it's trip? This is "real" history, but I doubt that many school kids are taught about it nowadays?

    • @driver667
      @driver667 2 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Since mid 1990's John Butler hydro power station is further up the King River. The flow can be artificial when turbines are kicked in.The river is not dammed but water is diverted by tunnel from Lake Burbury. Yes the rail easement was repaired up to the quarter mile bridge in 1980's for access for Hydro Electric Commission survey work as possible new dam. Forestry Commission had a barge at Teepookana bridge.

    Use to drive a car up to Teepookana bridge in up until 1997. There were a few Huon pine sleepers still buried. I'm starting to think it might be more economical and passenger/family/tourist friendly to move the station terminal to Lowana, make it the base, forget the rack section and Queenstown end and operate between Lowana and Lower Landing.

    • @driver667

      ​@top40researcher31 The original railway was constructed by the Mount Lyell l Mining and Railway Company in 1897. Construction plagued with problems from 1893. The railway was close and removed in 1963. In 1983 the NO DAMS compensation for Hydro loss of jobs, Tasmanian Government commissioned a Commercial Viability Feasibility to rebuild the Abt for tourism. The report concluded that the railway would be plagued with maintenance, financial, operational and staffing problems and could not come up with an operational scenario that would work. The State decided not to go ahead. Then after the Port Arthur tragedy and Howard Government new gun laws, Tasmanian tourism collapsed in 1996. The 1983 report was never seen and hides in the Parliamentary Library. So in a way the Abt railway continues a historical tradition. It atleast takes people along the edge of rare rain forest precious to the planet. It also demonstrates how after years a railway can through bush can have negligible environmental impact, certainly no road kill. Good reference is Lou Rae's book.
