Jaw-dropping views, dozens of boutique wineries and cafes, a brewery or two, as well as loads of fun things to do if lying by the pool just isn't your thing.Running from Broke Road in the sou...

Great weekend in Wine Country. Saturday 14 September

This tourist drive was established in 2014 as an alternative to following the M1 and Hunter Expressway to the Golden Highway. While it wasn't supported by the RMS and TASAC as many other tourist drives are. It was set up with a grassroots committee which included financial support from 5 business chambers and tourist organisations, the Hunter Business Chamber, Cessnock and Singleton Councils. Many thanks must go to those people who had the vision to see this tourist drive established.

Sad to hear that the Denman Wine and Food Fair has been cancelled this year in May. Have it on good authority that it is only a temporary issue and will be back in 2020.

After the devastating bushfire of just over a year ago, the Richy Main Museum is back on track.

MAJOR MILESTONE

We are very proud to announce that the entire Mulbring Road (1.2km towards Leggetts drive) section of track is fully rehabilitated and passed inspection from last years devastating bush fire.

This now means that stage one of the rebuilding of our track is complete, to get this far and our volunteers and industry partners have worked together to:
• Replacement of 550 burnt timber sleepers with donated concrete sleepers
• Replacement of 100 timber turnout bearers
• Drop & tamp 400 tons of new ballast

We have estimated just on $1,000,000 of in kind donations and value of work has been put in to get to the end of this stage.

The work undertaken on the Mulbring Road branch would not have been possible without the support of rail industry organisations :

• Sweitelsky Rail Australia has provided the assistance of track workers, supervisors and certifiers and has been the main driving force behind the work.

• The Australian Rail Track Corporation and John Holland CRN has facilitated the provision of several hundred second hand concrete sleepers.

• South Maitland Railways has donated 50 timber turnout bearers and several hundred brand screw spikes to fasten them also SMR has loaned us free of charge various rail equipment.

• Ben's Rail and Civil, and Goldsprings earthmoving have donated the use of rail-mounted excavators with operators.

• Kennards Hire have donated the use of a generator and track maintenance tools.

• Daracon Group, in addition to their initial donation of ballast, continue to supply ballast at cost price with discounted delivery.

• Waeger Constructions has provided a quotation for repair of Number 1 Bridge (on the Pelaw Main line), which will be the basis of an application for a significant grant from the NSW Government.

We can now move on to the next stage of track rehabilitation, which is rehabilitating the burnout line back down to our carriage shed first, then the final stage is the track to Pelaw Main!!!
