+
In the Mallala area it is a well known location marked by a sign.
+
The disappearance of the sign and the desire to install a replacement has resulted in some puzzling questions.A grant to finance the replacement required research into when & why the crossing was so named.
+
 
+
It was considered that ''“The landing of the Anzacs at Gallipoli coincided with when the railway construction had reached that point."'' however page 6 of '''The Register''' 22 June 1915 quotes:
+
  
'''RAILWAY  WORK  PROGRESSING'''
+
<TopTenPages offset=1>10</TopTenPages>
  
''Operations in connections with the Salisbury to Long Plains Railway, authorized by an Act in 1913, were commenced at the Salisbury end on April 23 last. The line is to be 34 1/2 miles long."''
