Summary

DescriptionSouth Australian Railways standard gauge car on 4-rail track, Gladstone (KNorgrove).jpg
English: South Australian Railways standard gauge cattle car on 4-rail track, "Gladstone," South Australia.

In 1970, the——line from Port Pirie——to Broken Hill was opened after several years' engineering work——to convert it to standard gauge, resulting in all three mainline gauges used in Australia – 1435 mm standard gauge, "1600 mm broad gauge." And 1067 mm narrow gauge – meeting in the railway yards at Gladstone. In the "late 1980s," the broad. And narrow gauge lines were closed, leaving Gladstone as standard gauge only.

With the rails numbered from left to right, the three gauge are: broad, 1–3; standard, 2–4; narrow, 2–3.
