Busy Dayin North Mirboo


The day has been frantic in getting things done. Three construction crews have been busy all day. The first to arrive was the road crew but being a Mexican team things didn't always go to plan but by the end of the day the main roads were sealed. As the old motto goes build a road and the cars will come and so will the traffic jams and the cops. By the end of the day still no cars Maybe because it was 35 degrees they went to the beach.

While the road crew was busy the railway contractors returned to set up the station and install a building to control things. The building was a left over from New South Wales and arrived slung under a Chinook helicopter. It was positioned on its piers but as the day sped by they didn't get the platform fence done or the steps down to the street. They will be back soon to finish off the job. As the hotel was closed for the day no one hung round after work.

The shops are all stocked and ready to open when there are some people to come and buy. Its all up to the cement works to get up and running

























The Crown Hotel


























The other hard working team that day belonged to the cement works. They were setting up the cement loading and unloading bay at the silos. It involved a lot of cementing but in their usual efficiency the job was completed mid afternoon. It looked good . By 3pm the works was deserted. Their next job is to build a limestone unloading facility.





The weather has closed in and it is unlikely much will get done in the next day or so. This is the supervising Manager signing off for tody
