Clapp outlines broad gauge unification plan at Port Pirie
Sir Harold Clapp presented to Port Pirie officials and northern town representatives on September 4 the plan to unify railway gauges across Australia. He warned current 13,000 miles of broad and standard gauge and 13,000 miles of narrow gauge hinder rapid transport and military readiness. Diesel electric engines could replace steam, reducing refueling and increasing efficiency. The project spans Perth to Darwin with a £77 million cost and 848,625 tons of steel, creating over 100,000 jobs and boosting meat transport from cattle and sheep districts. The proposal aims to foster northern industries and deliver incalculable national value. Mr. Lacey MP praised the plan.
