Queensland DCDB - updated towns

Posted by morb_au on 5 October 2009 in English.

Now that we have access to the DCDB, I've had a crack at filling out some towns and railways.

Towns: Calliope, Nagoorin, Biloela, Moura, Theodore, Thangool.
Railways: Moura Short Line, Gladstone Monto Branch, Callide Valley Branch South, Dawson Valley Branch.

Up next: Emerald.

Yes there's a theme developing: Being interested in the railways since forever, in Queensland, coal haulage has been the peak activity, and I suppose the main economic base of the state as well. Looking at the Moura Mine (location of this diary entry), on the Yahoo Landsat imagery, I'd never realised for how long it stretched.

ځای: Moura Mine, Kianga, Banana Shire, Queensland, Australia

There is underground coal mining near Newcastle, NSW and some of these tunnels go for hundreds of km up and down the central coast of NSW north of Sydney.
