 25 		   26   Quorn - Hawker Weekly Freight 
A scenario in the SAR Peterborough Base Session v2.0		 ArrowRightBtn.png
 27 
The weekly Commonwealth Railways freight service from Quorn to Hawker. Bottom

 The Historical Bit 

Up until 1956 the narrow gauge (3ft6in, 1067mm) Central Australia Railway from Port Augusta to Marree and on to Alice Springs ran through the Flinders Ranges via Quorn and Hawker. In 1956 a new standard gauge (4ft8½inch, 1435mm) line from Port Augusta to Marree was opened following a more direct and easier route that avoided the difficult Flinders Ranges. The new line bypassed Quorn, Hawker and most of the original narrow gauge line to Marree. The old line was immediately closed except for the section between Quorn and Hawker. The closure reduced the services on the line from 10 train movements each day down to one movement each week. The Quorn-Hawker section survived because a mine near Hawker needed to send its ore to Quorn but the local dirt roads were unsuited for the task.

The Commonwealth Railways (CR), the operator of the Central Australia Railway, ran a weekly freight service between Quorn and Hawker using SAR locos and a mixture of CR and SAR rolling stock. It was the only scheduled service running on the line although a second "when required" freight service was provided in the timetable. SAR T 44, which was based at Quorn, was a regular sight on this run. The few existing photographs of the service usually show a very short consist, only a few wagons, mostly for carrying minerals and general goods.

Because there was only one service each week, combined with the generally poor condition of the track, on-time running was never a consideration. In 1972 the service was cancelled and the line was closed. The track has since been removed and some of it was used in restoring the line from Quorn to Port Augusta for heritage train operations.

 When, Where and With What 

Hawker Freight

Location Index

Each location in the layout has a detailed set of track diagrams that provide a variety of useful information

The  Getting Started  guide below gives a summary of what is available.

To display this information click any Location Index graphic, or go to the bottom of the page for all the session links (all links will open in this window).


Getting Started:
  1. If you have already closed the opening message window then the first step is to pause the session by pressing the  P  key.
  2. If you decide to set the session clock to a different starting time then follow the instructions shown in the Orders section
  3. Next locate your loco. Either:-
    • Open the Finder Tool (press  Ctrl   F ) and type, in the Name field, the name of your selected loco, for example SAR T 44 (or just T 44 which should be enough), then click the tick icon, OR
    • Open the Driver List (bottom left of the screen) and then scroll through the list to find either:-
    • the loco name (e.g. SAR T 44) OR
    • the driver icon (named Driver 44) - this is a non-animated icon
    then click the drivers Eye icon Driver Eye.png to take control of the loco.
  4. Take a few moments to get your bearings. Click Quorn Data (this link will open in this window) to show the location details and track plans for Quorn. In each location details page:-
    • the Tab HM White.png tab gives an overall summary of each location with a "potted" history (where available).
    • the Tab TM Grey.png tab reveals the invisible TM Track Marks for Drive To commands.
    • the Tab IN Grey.png tab lists all active industries and their commodities.
    • the Tab SW Grey.png tab describes the names, locations and settings of all junction switches as well as some switch sets you may want to use.
  5. Each location details page has direct links to the adjacent locations so you can explore along the route.
  6. When you are ready to start, reload the Peterborough Base Session page (click the Scenarios button on your current location page) and select this Scenario again or just use the Back button on your browser - whichever is quicker.
  7. Switch back to Trainz Driver Mode
  8. Close the opening message window and, if Pause is shown on the screen, press the  P  key to start the session.


Tutorial:
Tutorial A tutorial on using these scenarios is provided in the link on the left. The link will open in this window


Orders:
Scenario  15  Quorn Shunter must be run first to select the rolling stock assets that will be used in this scenario.
  1. Move the loco from the depot  Loco Shed  and couple to the consist on  Goods Siding 3 .
  2. Pull the consist into the station yard area and run the loco around the train.
  3. Proceed to Hawker stopping at intermediate locations (optional - your choice) Willochra, Wilson and Gordon to drop off wagons (if there are enough wagons available for those locations)
  4. Deliver wagons according to their types (not all wagon types may be present in the consist):-
    • QLX Vans, CR NGS open wagons and CR Flat wagons are delivered to  Loading Banks  and  Goods Sheds 
    • K Cattle wagons and Sheep vans to  Stockyards 
    • CCC gondola wagon loaded with coal to the  Loco Depot  at Hawker
    • Empty CCC gondola wagons to the  Loading Bank  at Hawker
    • The Water Tanker wagon stays with the loco
  5. At Hawker coal and water as needed.
  6. Turn the loco on the  WYE .
  7. Option: Return to Quorn picking up any wagons on the way.
    • At Quorn stable any goods wagons on a goods siding and livestock wagons at the stockyard
    • Deliver loaded CCC gondola wagons to the  Barytes Unloader 
    • Service and stable the loco at the depot after turning on the turntable

Driving Notes:

A summary of the facilities and product loads at all locations along the line is provided in the link SAR Port Augusta-Hawker Line

  • The Hawker Line is not signalled beyond Quorn Yard. Train Order Working is in operation on the line.
  • You have been issued with orders and the authorisation for the Hawker Line.
  • As this is usually the only service operating on the line each week, and there is no certainty about which stops will be made, there is no need to maintain a strict timetable
  • As the track is in poor condition there is a 20mph speed restriction in effect on the entire line
  • The water tank wagon is to be coupled directly behind the tender to replemish the loco as there are often no guaranteed water supplies on the line.
  • The approaches to all locations are protected by invisible signals to prevent the AI Half Speed Slowdown Problem when approaching a signal at stop.
  • Trackmarks and industries have been provided for AI Drive To Trackmark, Drive via Trackmark and Drive to  Industry  commands. Click Location Index for details.
  • Manual (no AI) driving is possible. As a visual driving aid, a Caution warning sign has been placed at the location of the Main Approach Dn and Main Approach Up trackmarks. Click Location Index for details.
  • If driving manually in yards, you are responsible for correctly setting any catch points.
