Taken as it was near the eastern end of the cutting, even this pic doesn't properly illustrate the depth. The cutting has a long and macabre history, with several workers killed during its construction due to a blasting accident and several drivers later perishing after crashing their automobiles through the old timber bridge's guardrails and down onto the rails below. Despite the history, it's a peaceful and beautiful place. The old railway line was abandoned in the 1970s and runs for around 50km between the towns of Thirlmere and Mittagong. Although not a proper rail trail, there are service trails parallelling the railway for much of its length. I've walked it a few times, including the trip pictured which was undertaken 2-Boot-Drive Swagman style ;-)](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/553248634380736643/2abad85f-7a5e-4db0-81e8-d9039a6f833a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh) ## Visit Mittagong Where to stay Things to do ### Where to stay in Mittagong ![Default Image](https://images.trvl-media.com/media/content/expus/graphics/deals/TE_Clouds_card_r1.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=350&h=192&q=medium) ### Colo Vale If you're spending some time in Colo Vale, Nattai National Park and Bargo River State Conservation Area are top sights worth seeing.
