Manilla Railway Bridge (Viaduct)
Namoi Street (corner of Church Street) to Manilla Showground, River Road, Manilla NSW 2346
The Manilla Viaduct is an iconic landmark - a one-of-a-kind piece of historic rail infrastructure sits high above the Manilla showground.
The rail line opened in September 1908 and provided an important link to the regional centres surrounding Manilla. Although the line is now closed, it stands as a heritage reminder of years gone by.
The Manilla Railway Bridge (Viaduct) crosses over the Namoi River, and travels through the Showground to Manilla Railway Station (no longer in existence).
It is the only curved timber railway viaduct in the Southern Hemisphere, and is a great feature for events like the Manilla Show and Renewable Manilla.
