    Worked as a Assistant Station Master from 1984 until the 1987. Very busy place for train working due to the length of the yard and various roads in it. You could accommodate 4 reasonably sized trains there for the passage of your up and down mail trains and parcels trains.
    Good place to work.

In the process I have copped a lot of Flack, but all I am trying to do is give a Passenger service to the people in Rural Australia. In March 2019 I contacted UGL. Ian Pendlebury is the person I spoke to about building a new single Railcar which are driveable from Both Ends. From the emails, and, a Phone conversation I had with Ian, it was pointed out to me that it would be too expensive to have a New one built.
