Canberra's ORIGINAL light rail? The Brickworks tramway | Lost in Time (Episode 2)

Welcome to Lost in Time, a short series of documentary videos showcasing the lost railways of the ACT, and an exploration to see what survives.
In todays video, we explore the narrow-gauge tramway from Yarralumla Brickworks to Old Parliament House. Closed and demolished in 1927, how much of this obscure yet pivotal railway survives today?

Absolutely fascinating. Thank you.

This is an absolutely fantastic series, I'm surprised that other museums don't make videos like this!

Fascinating video. Thanks for sharing. If the Brickworks Tramway had survived, it would be quite a tourist attraction these days, especially as it passed the old Parliament House.

Terrific, born and breed here found that so interesting.

Great,but it disgusts me that so much of our rail history has been wiped out forever.
