Map required[edit]

This article would benefit greatly from a railway route map equivalent to the highways map on List of highways in New South Wales. --Scott Davis ^Talk 14:07, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Excellent - thankyou. Do you think other states have/had complex enough rail networks to also need maps like this? --Scott Davis ^Talk 15:28, 11 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Need to move a paragraph from Narrow gauge railways in Australia?[edit]

It seems to me that the last paragraph of Narrow gauge railways in Australia#New South Wales has absolutely nothing to do with narrow gauge and would be more appropriate in this article. Opinios? --Athol Mullen (talk) 08:26, 17 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Having different rail weights isn't special to NSW, but a common factor to most railways. Dunno if it is workth keeping here, but it doesn't belong over there. Wongm (talk) 05:18, 20 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I asked for opinions because I couldn't see an obvious place to put it in this article, and it positively doesn't belong where it is right now. It's presently unreferenced, and I'm leanding towards just removing it. Perhaps if there is some sort of more technical generic article about railway construction, I may put similar info into it, referencing it from the ARTC standards that define the various line classes. --Athol Mullen (talk) 09:51, 20 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Electrification[edit]

Might need to throw in a section about it - how it started with suburbans, then main line to the Blue Mountains, link to prototype electric locos, the 46 class, extending the network, then the 1980s mainline work, the 85/86 classes and then the demise of electric freight.
