We could arrange a 'Before and After' photo shoot .

Well done . You can see where a Shell bowser was, the base area is visible. This thread is going on and on, but we must be boring the guys outside of Victoria

A neighbour here has 100 year + old gold mining mullock heaps on his place. Chinese diggers apparently.

A timber tramway cutting is also visible down the road. One cannot imagine the back breaking manual labour involved, they moved an incredible amount of dirt with shovels .

My sister was a school teacher in Noojee in 1970 and during one visit to the town to see her, I had a look into the then Country Fire Brigade shed. There was a Dodge weapons carrier in there as the Noojee fire truck. It didn't look too love at that time and I often wonder just what happened to it.
Good photo Mike K.
Regards Rick.
