Join me for a tour of the old Monarto to Sedan railway line.
The Sedan line was a branch of the main south line from Adelaide. Beginning at Monarto South, It ran 70 kilometres north to Sedan and opened in 1919.
It had eight stations and goods sidings. These days, there’s nothing left but the permanent way and a few bridges.
The line from Cambrai to Sedan was taken up in the late 60s. Apamurra to Cambrai closed in 1987 and finally the line from Monarto to Apamurra saw its last train in 2005.
