From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Cobar railway line is a railway line in New South Wales, Australia. It branches west towards Cobar from the Main West Line at Nyngan (the Main West once continued northwest to Bourke but is now closed from Nyngan onwards). The Cobar line opened in 1892, and continues to carry wheat and ore^[1]. After closing to passengers in the 1970s, Cobar railway station has been redeveloped into a community facility^[2].
