Another section of the Tweed railway in northern NSW should be on the DLS soon.
Open for only about 19 years from 1930 to 1949 this short branch line ran from Booyong Junction on the main Tweed Line to Ballina on the Richmond River.
Ive included a couple of bright red markers on the Lismore to Byron route to indicate where this route can be joined in just to make it easier to see.
This route includes a section of 2Ft guage cane railway with two loop lines running out from the Ballina Sugar Mill.
The following items are available for 2Ft gauge: (there may be others !)
Merced Loco <kuid:44700:71>
24in Davenport (Green) <kuid:181672:436956> (also others in this series)
Cane truck <kuid2:72882:1050:1> (also some commodities here from the DLS)
There is also a section of invisible track laid from the Ballina wharf along the Richmond River and up into the creek where a cane wharf connects to the cane rail link. Ive not adjusted this section as it will depend on what ‘boat’ is used and what level track it is designed for. Just reset the track into the river if you intend to use this section.
For the Aircraft enthuisasts, Ballina airport has also been relocated closer to town however I have not included any air routes in the map.
The keen drivers should be able to set up some interesting sessions using the main railway, cane loops, river and air traffic - good luck.
Thanks to all content creators and all my usual sources.
