Warrachie was once a small township, servicing the surrounding farming community. The railway siding was the place where the local farmers bought their bagged grain to be collected by the train and taken to Port Lincoln. Stacks of wheat and barley once filled this yard, a reminder of how it may have once looked can be seen in the town of Lock, 10km to the north, where a life size statue depicting two grain lumpers and a wheat stack can be admired. Across the highway from here are some of the only remnants of the town, where the now non operational slaughter house and pig sty can be seen. To the north were a few houses, a shop and a post office, all sadly now gone. If you look through the scrub across the eastern side of the railway line, you may see me out working in the paddocks!
