DESCRIPTION |
Details (Known As) |
Curdimurka (formerly Stuart Creek) Railway Siding Complex, including fettlers' quarters, water treatment plant, water tank and Stuart Creek Bridge [Metal Girder] |
Registered Name |
Curdimurka Railway Station Complex |
Significance |
Built in 1886, the complex reflects the expansion of the northern railway into very remote areas as a result of land settlement. The siding is the last remaining station yard of significance left intact on the old Ghan railway line and contains station yard, water treatment plant, tower and associated holding tank. The items are of a design common to similar items associated with this line, however, together they form a complex which is of particular significance because of their identification with the first Central Australian railway.
