Singleton Target Range light railways

摘要

In the December 2007 issue of Light Railways, Phil Rickard asked whether any one knew about any target range light railways. One such light railway once operated deep inside the Singleton military firing range, between Whittingham to the north and Broke to the south in the Hunter Valley in NSW. John Shoebridge had visited the site in about 1970 and Grant Fleming went there during December 1995.1 became aware of the light railways through noting them marked on the Singleton, 1:63,360, 1955 edition, military map. Various light railway researchers knew of the system, but knew little about it.
