One comment on “Rushworth Murchison Rail Trail Project Update”
This rail trail will become important, once completed in 2024, to link Murchison East (Shepparton?) V/Line station to Rushworth to Heathcote's O'Keefe Rail Trail, and to Bendigo's V/Line station. Keep focussed Campaspe Shire, for a timely and quality outcome.
