Bog Pit Railroad "The Bog" F7 rusty

The Bog Pit is a fictional coal mine found in the Australian outback.

The Bog Pit use to have a dedicated passenger service known as "The Bog" which took workers and tourists alike to and from the mine.

The passenger service was in great demand during the rise of coal mining in the region, when tourists from around the country would visit multiple mines in the region as part of an "industrial safari". Workers still made up the majority of passengers.

As time passed the industrial boom in the region became less of a spectacle and tourism numbers reduced. At this stage the number of workers using the passenger service was not enough to warrant keeping the service alive, so eventually the locally renowned "The Bog" stopped running.
You can still see the old F7 units rusting away in the sidings outside the mine.
