Hendon railway line
The Hendon railway line was a railway in western Adelaide that was used mainly for industrial purposes in the mid 20th century. The line branched from Albert Park station on the Grange line, and ran for 1.1 kilometres to Hendon station. There is no evidence of the track left. The eastern end of West Lakes Boulevard now covers most of the path of the track.
