Bob the Railway Dog Statue

The Bob the Railway Dog Statue is a bronze memorial located on Main Street in Peterborough, South Australia, outside the former railway town's visitor precinct. It commemorates Bob, a famous outback dog in the 1880s-1890s who travelled extensively on South Australian Railways trains. Erected to honour his loyalty and railway heritage, the life-size statue is a popular photo stop and symbol of Peterborough's history as a major railway junction.

Visitors can expect a life-size bronze statue of Bob the Railway Dog set on a low plinth in a paved public area on Main Street in central Peterborough, near the Steamtown Heritage Rail Centre and Visitor Information Centre. The setting is an open streetscape with heritage buildings, interpretive signage about Bob's story, and flat pedestrian access. It is an outdoor photo opportunity and short heritage stop, often combined with a visit to the nearby railway museum.
