South Australian Railway Station Yard Drawings

The following list links to Station Yard drawings of the SAR. Most yards are in 40 feet to the inch scale (1:480) so a 1Km long yard results in a drawing that is about 2 metres long. All of our scanned drawings hold true scale so they can be used for measuring distances with reasonable accuracy. Where possible the list shows scale and the year the drawing was created. The Civil yard drawings were drawn and then amended over time to show what was on the ground at that time. This means that removed buildings and tracks would often not show on the civil plan. To see a yard at a particular time we use the yard lighting plans. The electrical section would take a copy of the civil yard of the time and draw the electrical detail over the top. As the electrical detail would change more often, they ended up with copies of the civil plan at different time periods.

40ft plan is the scale for the standard yard drawing.
2 chain plans were mostly used as a block plan or overview of the whole yard and surrounding roads and cottages.
