Wauchope Industry

Industry
Wauchope is important for its timber. At various times the town's railway yards have handled more timber than any other Australian town. The district reputedly has the country's largest blackbutt forest. The surrounding mixed farming has given the town a reputation as an important dairy farming centre. This has been boosted by the presence of a 'Big Bull', another Australian 'big' tourist attraction only a few kilometres from the town. Equally the local dairying co-op is substantial employer.
