There is a special rail line that runs from the coal facility at Abbots Point (just north of Bowen) inland to Collinsville and then on to Newlands Coal, more directly behind Mackay.. There is more mining inland of the coal, this time of gold, and the single gravel road goes west to meet the north south beef road running from Clermont to Charters Towers.
Physically Collinsville is quite attractive, nestling as it does amongs hills the South Africans would call Koppjies, wooded and with a substantial river running past.
The cemetery is not the original one, which was largely eaten by the coal mine, but is quite extensive, and well kept. Many of the families recorded are part of the local beef cattle tradition, which pre-dated the coal and goes on in strength today.
It should be remembered that Collinsville pioneers mostly came via Port Denison (Bowen) and that many of them went on SW to live and work at Blair Athol, near Clermont.
