trading as Northern Rivers Railway

Some of the NRRL track-clearing volunteer team met at Byron Bay Railway Station this morning for a photo opportunity before heading to clear tracks further up the line near Old Bangalow Road railway crossing. The weather was  a little damp but great for the fires further up the tracks along the Tyagarah Nature Reserve, the team of volunteers cleared 800 metres of railway track today reports from the team say that the tracks and sleepers are in good shape in this stretch, better than expected. Stay tuned for more images

URGENT! OUR LOCAL RAILWAY IS BEING DESTROYED RIGHT NOW!

WE NEED YOUR HELP TO PREVENT IT!

A bike track is not enough for our community – we need a railway line as well. We urge you to donate and help us stop the destruction of our railway.

We want our community to have a bright future, with multiple travel options available for them. Please donate now and help us keep our railway alive!

We do not believe the Tweed Shire Council entered proper community consultation to give the thumbs up to approve just a Bike track option.

We need a Commuter Light Rail Service to service our communities and not waste a precious corridor of land to minimal use.

To do this we need your HELP TO STOP THE RAIL LINE RIP UP which has started at the Tweed. 

Northern Rivers Rail Ltd (NRRL) needs $100,000 to take legal action. This will buy time for proper community consultation and a way forward to provide multi-use of our railway corridor for the future.

A generous donor has already pledged $50,000 to this cause so we need to raise another $50,000 to fight the demolition of the tracks. We are also raising funds to repair the tracks from Byron to Mullumbimby.

THERE IS NO TIME TO WASTE, THE RAILWAY FACES IMMINENT DESTRUCTION!
