On the down side of Culcairn just south of the crossing the branch line is
still intact, albeit a little worse for wear and only visible if you follow
the formation about 50 meters from the crossing, heading towards the creek.
The track work is still intact across the bridge and beyond towards
Holbrook. The remains of what appears to be an S truck underframe is notable
line side just before the bridge.
