Yes. The line to Renmark was a roundabout route from Tailem Bend
roughly north-east almost to the Victorian border, then north to Paringa
and back West to Renmark. The line continued through Berri to Barmera.
Line opened to Renmark in about 1927, on to Barmera in 1928.
Berri-Barmera closed in 1981, but I cannot quickly find any other
closure dates.
Cheers...JD
