Lest We Forget ..
As many as 247 trains ran per week in 1944.
Incredible for an aging fleet of steam loco second hand from WA and Qld, SA. They soldiered on!

This plaque acknowledges the contribution made by many civilians in the development and operations of the NORTH AUSTRALIA RAILWAY in the Katherine region through peace and war
