Is this route really closed? Stockinbingal, New South Wales appears to say it's on the major freight routes from Sydney to Perth and Melbourne to Brisbane! --Scott Davis ^Talk 13:35, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My apologies, the line is of course open. I plan to expand on this page soon.The Fulch 23:45, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Because of better gradients and lesser summits to climb, most passenger and freight trains travel by Stockinbingal rather than via Lithgow. Tabletop (talk) 07:37, 28 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The junction at Parkes originally pointed the other way, but is now a triangle in any case. Tabletop (talk) 07:35, 28 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
