Good Morning,

Today is Wednesday the 22nd of May, 2019.

This is a write up about the Biggenden Railway Station and surrounding Infrastructure of Historical importance.

The above photo was taken while we were staying in the town, spending our Tourism dollars while we were there. We used the town as our base to travel to several Locations. One of those locations was the Chowey Bridge, a must see location to visit.

The Biggenden Railway Station is on the Mungar Junction to Monto branch Railway Line, in Queensland, and, is in the North Burnet Region of Queensland. Here is a link with more info.

I contacted Bombadier in Melbourne, but they did not answer my email, so I will need to try and contact them next week. In the last few weeks I have been putting together information about the possibility of running a railcar from Casino to Lismore and maybe further on. In the last ...
