Prairie to Barcaldine road

Go a bit further east than Prairie to Torrens Creek then turn south sealed all the way to Barcaldine.

I drove to Torrens Creek Rd from Barcaldine last week and it is a good sealed road. Easy to sit on 90-100k/hr.

I drove Barcaldine to Hughenden 3 days ago on the shortest most direcroute, which had about 200km of dirt from Muttaburra to Hughenden. The road was excellent the southern half I sat on 80km/hr out of caution, the northern half I went to 90km/hr towing our small hybrid van. It's clay based, so nice and smooth, but a definite no no on any rain.
The Muttaburra to Barcaldine section had plenty of Brenner's road trains,. A Muttaburra local told me it's good two lane bitumen to Praire, probably why the road trains use it The road from Hughenden to PorcupGorge was good bitumen as well.

Hi kebab 9

Just travelled up from Barcaldine, Aramac to Torrens Creek.

Road a breeze. Bitumen all the way. Be careful on the edges when trucks come towards you. Bit soft in places from rain Sunday night.

I am planning to traverse some of these roads in the next few days. Can I please clarify this comment by Mark from Tamworth: "A Muttaburra local told me it's good two lane bitumen to Praire, probably why the road trains use it".

Is this a reference to the road that is labelled "Prairie- Muttaburra Road" in Exploroz Traveller? It is marked as 2/3 dirt in EOT 2023. Or is it a reference to some other road? Google Street View is fairly useless for this road, as it's 16 years out of date.
