Wallangarra Historic Railway Station/in /by

Stand with one foot in Queensland and one foot in New South Wales when you stand on that station platform at the historic Wallangarra Railway Station.

The railway station at Wallangarra was built in 1888 to service travellers who had to change trains from the standard gauge of New South Wales to Queensland’s narrow gauge. The two trains met here and you will note the differing architecture of the platform façades too.

One side of the platform reflects the New South Wales standard design for railways of that era, with a skillion roof, while the other is Queensland’s design with its bullnose verandah roof.

Thulimbah Historic Railway Siding/in , /by

This quaint railway siding has photographers stopping in their tracks, literally. The view down the railway track with rustic, character-filled buildings flanked on either side makes it a favourite with photographers.

The buildings across the tracks from the railway siding were originally cold store buildings for local apples. Today these buildings are also in a disused state and what remains has rustic beauty for photography.

The siding is no longer in use, however once a month a steam train passes this way enroute from Warwick to Stanthorpe taking tourists for a day tour with Southern Downs Steam Railway. Please be watchful for trains or maintenance on the tracks and be aware the buildings are not open for public access.

Find Thulimbah Railway Siding at the intersection of Granite Belt Drive and Amiens Road, next to The Big Apple.

Ballandean Pyramid/in /by

It’s certainly a surprise to encounter a giant stone pyramid south of Stanthorpe near the village of Ballandean! Built from blocks of local granite, the pyramid stands 17.5 metres in height, 30 metres square at the base and contains 7,500 tonnes of rock. It was built using an excavator and dump truck and took eight months to complete.

Why is it there? The land owner had excess granite from excavations on the property and he built it just because he could! We’re certainly glad he did, as it’s an unusual landmark and quite incredible to see sitting against the backdrop of Girraween National Park.

The pyramid can be seen through the trees along the highway south of Ballandean. To reach the pyramid for a closer look, turn off the highway (eastward towards the Ballandean Tavern) on Eukey road, then turn immediately right onto Jacobsens Road. Follow Jacobsons Road for 1.7km until you reach the giant pyramid on the right. The pyramid sits on private property, so no approaching the pyramid, however the roadside is close enough to capture a view and a photo of this impressive site.
