Transport Heritage NSW

In 2013, Transport Heritage NSW was established by the Government of New South Wales[1] to manage the State’s rail heritage collection and provide support to the broader transport (bus, tram, rail) heritage sector in NSW[2] following an independent review.[3][4]

History

In May 2013, Minister for Transport Gladys Berejiklian acknowledged the importance of steam locomotive 3801, stating it would be a priority of Transport Heritage NSW to return it to service.[5]

On 10 December 2013, a majority of the members of the New South Wales Rail Transport Museum voted in support of the creation of Transport Heritage NSW.[6][7] Other transport heritage groups also expressed concern for their future existence.[8] Peter Lowry was appointed as chairperson of the board and the nominated chief executive of Transport Heritage NSW, Andrew Killingsworth has been seen as a political appointment.[9]

In February 2016, Andrew Moritz was appointed as the new chief executive following the resignation of Andrew Killingsworth. On 1 March 2017, Rob Mason, former chief executive of RailCorp was appointed as the new chairman of the board, replacing Peter Lowry.

In November 2018, plans were announced to move Transport Heritage NSW from Eveleigh Railway Workshops, in Sydney and Broadmeadow Locomotive Depot to a new location in Chullora known as the Chullora Heritage Hub.[10]

In August 2022, former NSW Premier Nathan Rees was appointed as the new chair of the board, replacing Rob Mason.[11]

All locomotives formerly owned by the New South Wales Rail Transport Museum are now owned by THNSW.
