TRANGIE Trangie is the next town visited when heading east on the Barrier Highway to the junction, which will then be southwards. Trangie is a really nice town. Extraordinarily friendly and accommodating people live at this not so quite remote spot. No longer in the outback, with the provision of most electronic services. Research did not reveal the origins of Trangie as a name or how the town came to being. Being a rich farm producing area one suspect is the reason. The tennis player Lesley Turner Bowrey was born here in 1942, as well as rugby league player Justin Carney. The Hotels in Trangie are really beaut classic pubs that clearly have many a story to tell. The Trangie Churches are near century old buildings. The Trangie War Memorial is represented by the Memorial Hall. Trangie is lovely town with nice townspeople and is well known for its kindness and welcomeness to newcomers. John at the Tandara Caravan Park, has both a story to tell and will always see you off safely. Be sure to schedule a stopover at this very friendly town.
