Images taken on the last day of operation for this racecourse branch in Sydney.
Today the track has gone, as has all sign of the junction and Hume Highway crossing.
The signalbox is at the Thirlmere Railway Museum, platforms mostly intact (though new work will see some removed) and the trains all withdrawn and sold for private use or scrapping.

The branchline from Uranquinty to Kywong closed back in the 80s.
The deterioration over the years is now showing.
The 'Strange Modelers of Universal Trains' recently returned for a look at this interesting terminus.
