G'day,
A couple of the books mention the rock from the quarries being taken to the river docks in Camden, where they get loaded onto barges to be taken down the river. The dock area has a certain amount of storage, and one book mentions about the end of the rock carting early due to them having enough in storage at the dock to carry them until the winter freeze shuts the river traffic down.
I expect there's a private spur for the dock that comes off the line just before the broken bridge over the river.
