B2
The Bank has five tunnels (of which four are still in use), one level crossing (for track work road vehicles only) situated between B#2 and #3 tunnels, and two road bridges. The line crosses under the Pacific Highway twice, and once under the Sydney-Newcastle Freeway while passing through B#2 tunnel. The line was built through very rugged and heavily forested terrain on the western edge of a National Park. Because of its isolated location there are very few places from where the track can be observed.
Originally constructed as a single track line completed in 1887. Five tunnels (B#1 to B#5) were built as double track tunnels, but initially only a single track was laid through them. The line was duplicated in stages between 1907 and 1909.
