GresleyRail GnC Diag

GresleyRail GnC Diag
Part of the Grade and Curve Diagram for the Maitland to Wallangarra railway. This was the original rail route to the adjoining state of Queensland. Wallangarra, on the border, was a gauge change site due to Qld using 3'6" and NSW using std gauge. Gresley is located on the straight section with the 1 in 75 grade at the right hand side of the diagram.
