Mount Barker railway station

Mount Barker railway station is a preserved railway station in the Adelaide Hills, South Australia, on the 1600 mm (5 ft 3 in) broad gauge Victor Harbor line, formerly operated by South Australian Railways and its successor, Australian National. When the nearby Adelaide-Melbourne railway line was converted to 1435 mm (4 ft 8+1⁄2 in) standard gauge in 1995, the line was disconnected. The station has become the headquarters of the Australian Railway Historical Society, a not-for-profit organisation trading as SteamRanger, which runs more than 200 trips per year, of various durations, on the line. History In 1884, an 80.6 kilometres (50 miles) branch line was completed between Mount Barker Junction and Victor Harbor. Substantial stations were erected at Mount Barker, Strathalbyn and Goolwa. The Mount Barker station building, opened on 27 November 1883, was built from distinctive Aldgate freestone; it included the stationmaster's quarters and a ticketing office. Two years later, the first railway link between two colonial capital cities in Australia – Adelaide, South Australia and Melbourne, Victoria – was completed, to which the branch was connected at Mount Barker Junction, 5 route kilometres (3 miles) to the north of Mount Barker station. Regular services operated until passenger numbers declined in the late 20th century, largely because of the circuitous rail route between Adelaide and Victor Harbor and increasing ownership of motor cars. Services were terminated in 1984. As a result of rapid growth and traffic congestion on the South Eastern Freeway, sporadic calls have been made since the late 2010s to extend the former passenger rail service beyond Belair to Mount Barker. However, a 2022 government-sponsored report rejected the prospect of opening a train service, arguing that reliability and travel time would "not come close" to buses and cars. Present-day use In 1989, a not-for-profit railway preservation organisation, SteamRanger, was established by the Australian Railway Historical Society to operate its heritage train tours from Adelaide to Victor Harbor through the station. Six years later, as part of the One Nation infrastructure program, the main line between Adelaide and Melbourne was converted to standard gauge, leaving Steamranger's depot at Dry Creek in metropolitan Adelaide isolated. In a major project, all of SteamRanger's locomotives, rolling stock and infrastructure were moved to Mount Barker station. As part of the move, the District Council of Mount Barker renovated the station building, at the time derelict, to become SteamRanger's base. SteamRanger's heritage locomotives and rolling stock provide more than 200 trips a year, conducted – as with maintenance and administration – entirely by volunteers.

Mount Brown Conservation Park

Mount Brown Conservation Park is a protected area in the Flinders Ranges of South Australia. The park has established walking trails, including a section of the Heysen Trail. The park is managed by the Department of Environment, Water and Natural Resources; entry is free. It is located 14 km (8.7 mi) south of Quorn and about 300 km (190 mi) north of the nearest airport at Adelaide. The conservation park is classified as an IUCN Category VI protected area. History The conservation park was dedicated in November 1993 and its name was derived from the former forest reserve that occupied part of its extent. Prior use of the land Prior to European settlement, the land was solely in the custody of the Nukunu people. Europeans first visited the area on 10 and 11 March 1802 when a group of people from HMS Investigator led by the Scottish botanist, Robert Brown, climbed Mount Brown. From the 1870s, the land was used for forestry with the focus being on nursery activity to produce trees for planting in drier parts of South Australia and other Australian states. After 1900, the nursery role of the forest ceased and the land was leased for pastoral use, a practice which continued until the 1990s. Part of the land was declared as a forest reserve possibly in 1925. In 1990, the forest reserve status was withdrawn as part of a rationalisation of land holdings by the responsible South Australian government agency, the Department of Woods and Forests.

Mount Chappell Island

The Mount Chappell Island, part of the Badger Group within the Furneaux Group, is a 323-hectare (800-acre) unpopulated granite island with a distinctive central hill, located in Bass Strait, lying west of the Flinders and Cape Barren islands, Tasmania, south of Victoria, in south-eastern Australia. The island was originally named Mount Chappelle by Matthew Flinders for his wife's maiden name. The island is private property, used for grazing sheep and Cape Barren geese, and is a classic example of natural habitat degradation caused by human activities. The island forms part of the Chalky, Big Green and Badger Island Groups Important Bird Area. Fauna The island's habitats have been severely modified by slashing, ploughing, grazing and burning. Short-tailed shearwaters breed there. Little penguins used to breed in large numbers but have since ceased to do so. Apart from sheep, mammals introduced deliberately or inadvertently are the house mouse, a species of rat and feral cats. Reptiles present include Bougainville's skink, spotted skink, metallic skink, three-lined skink and tiger snake. See also List of islands of Tasmania References
Mount Chappell Island

Mount Chappell Island o Chappell Island è un'isola del Badger Group, un sottogruppo delle isole Furneaux in Tasmania (Australia). L'isola appartiene alla municipalità di Flinders e fa parte del Chalky, Big Green and Badger Island Groups Important Bird Area. Chappell Island è una proprietà privata, utilizzata per il pascolo di pecore e oche di Capo Barren e gli habitat della fauna locale sono stati gravemente compromessi dall'uomo. L'isola è stata così chiamata da Matthew Flinders che le ha assegnato il cognome da nubile della moglie. Geografia Mount Chappell si trova nello stretto di Bass, a sud-ovest di Flinders Island (la maggiore delle Furneaux), a nord-ovest di Cape Barren Island e a nord-est di Badger. Mount Chappell ha una superficie di 3,45 km² e si distingue per un'alta collina centrale. Fauna La berta codacorta si riproduce sull'isola, ma il pinguino minore blu che allevava un gran numero di piccoli ha smesso di farlo. Oltre alle pecore, altri mammiferi sono stati introdotti deliberatamente o inavvertitamente: il topo comune, il ratto e il gatto selvatico. Tra i rettili ci sono il Lerista bougainvillii, il Niveoscincus ocellatus, il Niveoscincus metallicus, la Bassiana duperreyi. Si trova sull'isola una sottospecie di serpente tigre: il serpente tigre di Mount Chappell Island (Notechis ater serventi) che ha una testa tozza e un corpo robusto ed è il gigante della specie di serpenti tigre con una lunghezza di 1,5 m e un peso di 2 kg. Dorsalmente, il suo colore è da bruno oliva a quasi nero, a volte con bande incrociate più chiare. La superficie ventrale è solitamente di colore più chiaro.

Mount Magnificent Conservation Park

Mount Magnificent Conservation Park (formerly Mount Magnificent National Park) is a protected area in the Australian state of South Australia located in the Mount Lofty Ranges about 58 kilometres (36 miles) south of the state capital of Adelaide. It is located within the gazetted locality of Mount Magnificent. The conservation park consists of land in section 293 in the cadastral unit of the Hundred of Kuitpo. It came into existence on 10 August 1967 as a national park by proclamation under the National Parks Act 1966 as the Mount Magnificent National Park. On 27 April 1972, it was reconstituted as the Mount Magnificent Conservation Park upon the proclamation of the National Parks and Wildlife Act 1972. Its name is derived from the mountain called Mount Magnificent which is located within its boundaries. As of 2016, it covered an area of 90 hectares (220 acres). The conservation park is bounded to the west by the Blackfellows Creek Road and to the east by the Mount Magnificent Road. The Heysen Trail, the long distance walking trail, passes through the middle of the conservation park entering from the east via Mount Magnificent Road and exiting in the north-west corner onto Blackfellows Creek Road. In 1980, it was described as follows:Mount Magnificent Conservation Park comprises the north-western slopes of Mount Magnificent which rises to 380m above sea level. The relatively flat land along the western boundary of the park carries stringybark low open forest (Eucalyptus baxteri, E obliqua). With increasing gradient in an easterly direction, trees of E fasciculosa, E leucoxylon and E huberana form a woodland formation with a grassy understorey. Walking tracks provide access for visitors to the park. The stringybark association which occupies the lower elevations of the park contains a great variety of sclerophyllous shrubs including the two species of Banksia which occur in South Australia. The conservation park is classified as an IUCN Category III protected area. In 1980, it was listed on the now-defunct Register of the National Estate.
