Commonwealth Oil Corporation.

The Lithgow to Newnes rail-line was opened on 1907 and ran for a total distance of 51 kilometres.

 

The line was operated by the Commonwealth Oil Corporation in conjunction with the Newnes oil and kerosene shale mines.

 

In the late 1980's these former NSW Government railway carriages were positioned in Newnes as a reminder of the now long past Commonwealth Oil Corporation railway.
