Queanbeyan railway bridges over Queanbeyan and Molonglo Rivers

About

The Queanbeyan railway bridges over Queanbeyan and Molonglo Rivers are two heritage-listed railway bridges that carry the Bombala railway line in the Queanbeyan-Palerang Region local government area of New South Wales, Australia. Both bridges were built between 1926 and 1927. The westernmost bridge crosses the Queanbeyan River from Queanbeyan to Queanbeyan East at 35.3424°S 149.2317°E / -35.3424; 149.2317 (Queanbeyan River railway bridge), while the easternmost bridge (approximately 8 kilometres (5 mi) to the east) crosses the Molonglo River at Burbong (now Carwoola) at 35.3371°S 149.3191°E / -35.3371; 149.3191 (Molongo River railway bridge). The two railway bridges are owned by Transport Asset Holding Entity, an agency of the Government of New South Wales. Together, the two bridges were added to the New South Wales State Heritage Register on 2 April 1999.
