The Landscapers Arrive




















The first job was to make the station safe so fences and steps down to the street were completed. About the same time the newest industry arrived in town in the form of a saw mill owned by Mountain Top Lumber Company. A rail connection was made to receive logs and ship out sawn timber to the rest of the world.

























The track ballast for this siding is still waiting the return of the team as the yard had been completed. A train load of Blast from RIC is due soon.



























With all that done then the landscapers moved in and started to improve the look of the town.. The cement works was fenced off and some work was done around the silos and up to the Melbourne of the station. They are taking a shot break before continuing


























T364 is about to shunt the cement wagons into the silo siding for loading while T363 has a load of limestone ready to be unloaded. These are the new n track limestone cars

























This view shows the station and goods shed
























The landscaping around the Cement woks and silos. T364 heads the train loading cement






















The last picture today is T363 is ready to depart with the limestone cars while T379 waits to shunt its train of limestone cars into the siding
