name Second Dispossession: NSW Rail and the Aboriginal Protection Board
description Historian John Maynard notes that from the late 19th Century into the early 20th Century, Aboriginal people who had been allocated land to turn into productive farms had their land taken and were removed again. The expansion of railways may be related to this 'second dispossession'. This multilayer combines sites of the Aboriginal Protection Board, also known as Aboriginal Welfare Board with railways to consider possible correspondences.

description NSW Railway station history. Translated from the on-line database https://www.nswrail.net/ created by Rolfe Bozier. The website is no longer maintained and has not been updated since 2011. The creator is not contactable but the website states "the data is freely available upon request." Original data is believed to have been sourced from NSW official records, most likely the Railway Gazette. This version only contains railway stations in regional NSW. Sydney suburban lines will be included in a later version and Newcastle and Hunter Valley coal lines separately. Note: the original data contains dates to the nearest year, month or day. As the gazetteer does not support month accuracy these records have been added to the database as the 1st of that month rather than lose accuracy.
