Colour picture: 48 class diesel hauls goods towards the Watsons Flat terminus.

A short goods train, headed by a new 48 class diesel, passes over the through truss bridge before entering the terminus of Watson's Flat in the early 1970s. Bridges of the same basic design, but of different span lengths, still exist on pioneer branchlines all over NSW, including those to Yass Town and Barraba.

This bridge and its wooden trestle approaches have been scratchbuilt from brass by David Bennett and Neil Watson. The pylons were constructed from styrene tubing and sheet. Backdrop by Val Bennett. Scenery designed and constructed by Glenn Watson, with trees by Neil Watson. Photo copyright Glenn Watson April 2000.
