Axedale Station detail and history.


Axedale Station Ground is entered immediately after the unnamed PCR Crossing that provided access from the East (Up) end. The ground is entered on a 1 in 400 down grade just after the line enters Cutting 48. Taig Road provides the West (Down) boundary of the ground. The length of the ground is slightly more than 21C.
