The Millewa South railway line, sometimes referred to as the Nowingi-Millewa South railway line was a freight only railway line located in the Millewa region of Victoria, Australia. It branched from Nowingi on the Mildura railway line. Construction began in 1929 and was leased out to Brunswick Plaster Mills to haul Gypsum until January 1988. The line was dismantled in October 1988.[1][2] The initial intention was to extend the line to Meribah in South Australia, however this never eventuated.
