Access to both jetties allowed timber to be loaded onto ships in all seasons, as the original west-facing Hamelin Bay jetty typically experienced poor conditions during the winter. Some parts of the system were originally constructed using wooden rails and along steep alignments, oriented towards lower cost, rough workings of the timber tramway system. Locomotives were used instead of horses from 1895 and by the 1900 the network spanned from Flinders Bay to 970: 944: 389: 195: 1138: 851: 380: 232: 202: 181: 1145: 937: 844: 520: 405: 1236: 977: 513: 397: 239: 188: 1213: 1190: 1103: 1074: 1051: 1029: 1007: 902: 809: 780: 757: 734: 711: 688: 665: 642: 619: 596: 573: 550: 475: 446: 357: 327: 304: 281: 258: 1442:(93.76 miles, 150.90 km) from Boyanup to Flinders Bay. Only the first section of the line (Boyanup to RGC) remains in place, although disused, with few changes since it was last operated. The remainder of the line has been lifted, although the rail reserve as far as Busselton remains under the control of the 1577:
The track is being extended from its current length of 54 km (34 mi) (across two separate sections) to the entire 109 km (68 mi) distance from Busselton to Flinders Bay, making it one of the longest rail trails in Australia. This aligns with the track being a core priority in the

This line was the first branch from the Northcliffe line, at Boyanup, linking Busselton to the WAGR network.
