Hackenbeck Bridge is a small wooden truss bridge which carries the Ffarquhar Branch Line over Hackenbeck Stream.

History[]

Hackenbeck Bridge was constructed in 1924/5, when the branch line was extended from Elsbridge to Ffarquhar.

In early 1988, the bridge needed repairs and a weight limit for the branch line was established. Because of the weight limit, Thomas had to briefly be transferred to the Brendam Branch Line, as he was too heavy to cross the bridge safely.[1]

A few years later, in 1991, the bridge collapsed just after Percy, Annie and Clarabel crossed it and took several days to repair.[2]
