Oberon Railway Line - Preservation Efforts

Preservation Efforts

In the last few years the Oberon Tarana Heritage Railway Inc (OTHR) have been steadily restoring the track between Oberon station and Hazelgrove. This task is almost completed and the only major work to do is to relay two road crossings. In recent months two end platform carriages (on loan from NSWRTM) and some smaller wagons have been delivered and are on the tracks in Oberon station. Two 73 class and CPH 13 are awaiting shipment to Oberon to form the OTHR's motive power. It is the long term goal of the association to run trains all the way to the mainline at Tarana.

    —Herbert Spencer (1820–1903)

    “Fanny was not there! How she would have enjoyed the scene.... I could not but think of her, and in spite of my efforts to prevent, the unbidden tear would flow. Alas! I cannot feel the satisfaction some appear to do in the reflection that her eyes beheld the scene from the other world.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
