Peterborough was once a major railway junction linking the east‑west line between Port Pirie and Broken Hill with the north‑south line from Adelaide to Alice Springs. It became one of three triple‑gauge railway junctions in Australia.
The town is home to the Steamtown Heritage Rail Centre, which displays locomotives and coaches, and previously housed the Peterborough Visitor Centre. Both were temporarily closed as of August 2025, with plans to reopen for the 2026 tourist season.
Historically, Peterborough was served by newspapers such as the Petersburg Times (later The Times and Northern Advertiser) and short‑lived publications like the Petersburg Enterprise and Northern Advocate. More recent media includes the community radio station 5PBS on 91.1 MHz.
Established in early 2022, the Nova Systems Space Precinct occupies a 21‑ha site just outside Peterborough and hosts multiple satellite ground stations. Up to 75 additional satellite dishes are planned for the precinct.
