'''Hawker''' became the terminus when the line to '''Marree''' was bypassed and closed in 1956.<br> | |||
Mineral traffic (barytes, a form of barium sulfate) from a mine 70km north of '''Hawker''' was the main reason the line remained open after 1956. The mineral was trucked to '''Hawker''' and then railed to a crushing and bagging mill at '''Quorn''' for shipment by rail throughout the country. Rail was used between '''Hawker''' and '''Quorn''' because of the poor condition of the roads.<br> | |||
From the 1960s there was only a single scheduled freight service each week. There were no passenger services. The line was closed in 1972.<br> | |||
