 +
The region between '''Peterborough''' and '''Broken Hill''' is very sparsely populated - cattle, mining and maintaining the railway were the major activities. Most, or in some cases all, of the houses at the settlements along the line were built for railway track workers and their families.<br>
 +
 
 +
There was an express passenger service that ran from '''Port Pirie''' to '''Broken Hill''' but between '''Peterborough''' and '''Broken Hill''' it only stopped to load water and coal, and to change the loco and crew. Local stopping passenger services were usually provided by a passenger car attached to a freight service. This scenario replicates that service between '''Peterborough''' and '''Paratoo'''.

ArrowLeftBtn.png   9   Peterborough to Paratoo Mixed Passenger Freight  ArrowRightBtn.png
A scenario in the SAR Peterborough Base Session
Mixed passenger and freight run from Peterborough to Paratoo. Bottom

 The Historical Bit 
The region between Peterborough and Broken Hill is very sparsely populated - cattle, mining and maintaining the railway were the major activities. Most, or in some cases all, of the houses at the settlements along the line were built for railway track workers and their families.

There was an express passenger service that ran from Port Pirie to Broken Hill but between Peterborough and Broken Hill it only stopped to load water and coal, and to change the loco and crew. Local stopping passenger services were usually provided by a passenger car attached to a freight service. This scenario replicates that service between Peterborough and Paratoo.

Mixed Passenger
 Era:  1920s to 1969
 Duration:  1 hour 40 minutes
 Loco:  SAR T 202 on Peterborough  Car Siding 
 Consist:  Attached to SAR T 202
The wagons have been placed in the order of their destinations with Paratoo and the passenger van at the rear end. Each wagon has its destination as part of its name e.g. QLX Paratoo indicating its destination is Paratoo.

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. Next locate your loco. Either:-
    • Open the Finder Tool (press  Ctrl   F ) and type, in the Name field, the name of the loco, in this case SAR T 202 (or just T 202 should be enough). Click the tick icon, OR
    • Open the Driver List (bottom left of the screen) and then scroll through the list to find the loco name (SAR T 202) then click the drivers Eye icon Driver Eye.png to take control of the loco
  3. Take a few moments to get your bearings. Click Peterborough Data (this link will open in this window) to show the location details and track plans for Peterborough. 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.
