Hard times for sure. When i was out in Karlimilyi (the rudall river NP) on a 4wd club trip we found a restored grave (thankyou outback graves). It said here lies (sorry i forgot name of the women) who died due to her husband's neglect. So many untold hardships...

Great video. Thank you for posting it. I still remember getting a map of the world as a present when I think I was around 10 years old. It was a Mercator projection that when you unfolded it and laid it flat it covered up the kitchen table. All the major railroads of the world were marked on it. Including this one mysterious one all by itself a long way from anywhere. The ten year old me imagined amazing things that this railway must serve to be out there especially built so far away. Years passed and one day as my wife and I took our kids to a railway museum in Ipswich one of the exhibits we saw is the original Gulflander railcar. A French Penhard I think. Anyway, the penny dropped. And all these memories came flooding back. I realised I was looking at a train connected to my childhood dreams of what that mysterious railway might be. I need to visit Normanton to ride the Gulflander. Thanks again.

Thanks Jim l really did enjoy this, I will have to try that trick with my missis, a train Ride although shes a bit cagey on it these days, loved the Camera shots...but gee a lot of work for a little we Rail Motor, I suppose its pretty flat though..again thanks regards Doc from Lindenow

Nicely done.

Jim, you've ticked off yet another item on my bucket list

Hate to break this to you Jim, you missed the train at 1:52 :)

enjoying the videos of your Queensland trip mate. very informative I love the cemetery trips, the stories that those graves hold. hope to catch up again on the tracks one day. reminds me " burn ya bloody Paper"

Like the comment below Jim this one was very moving, thankyou for doing this regards Doc from Lindenow

Awsome thanks Jim

Thank for this one Jim. A special one. Always find outback cemeteries a reminder of how hard life was back in the day. So many died too young in their prime and so many died as infants

Was Shire Carpenter there 40 odd years ago Doesn’t seem to have changed that much😏

Old cemeteries are amazing places

THANK YOU SHARE THE VIDEO

Great skills on the cranes nice video of it

That loco at 1:35 kinda looks like a North British design? Kinda like a "Baby" BR Class 16 😊

Nice video, Like

Jim, would you be so kind as to ask the group to put up some video about the transmission and drive arrangement please. I'm intrigued that this is a mechanical drive machine. Also, the wikipedia page lists this class as having a Cat D355E engine but I'm wondering if they actually meant D353E. I'm unable to find any online reference to a D355E engine. If they could post the engine serial number, that might shed some light on the engine model.

Where you been friend? Missed your uploads. Interesting video. Hope you are well.

Hey Jim, great to see a new video from you. Hope all is well🙂 Heavy lifts are always a challenge, this went really well. Take care, Cheers Glen.

G’day Jim. Good to hear you again. I take it you’re living up that way now. More videos please.

Thank you Jim, its been a while miss all your regular videos, glad you shared this one, I'm in Lindenow and would really love to volunteer with this little group but its a long way to drive hehehe Im a retired Driver and rail safety Instructor...again Jim thank you so much for sharing this its good they are moving forward regards Doc from Lindenow

I remember running AHD cameras off a similar cheap inverter gen and you could see a lot of noise in the video signals.

there is any shop,,of.grocery?

Hey Jim. Were all dying to see a cooking video

The Donaldson pre filter is a must in really dusty conditions… I have been using them for years in the outback They even take a lot of water out of the intake during heavy rain Keeps you paper elements dry! You do need to size them correctly for maximum efficiency

Looks like an interesting place for bird photography will have to put it on my list of places to explore thank you for sharing.

Have seen you on the tube for a while mate

I would love to travel the 12000 miles or so and visit this historic site.

Blokes seen more of Australia on 29" HWY terrains then most blokes could ever dream of 😂

Good tip thanks

Very informative video. We just crossed them in May 23. We had floods in Eyre Creek but these clay pans were less muddy.

Hi Jim Hope you are safe and in good health Keep posting mate You are a genuine camper bushy Love watching your adventures! 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

Thanks for your video Jim, great tips. New Subscriber.

What a bunch of condescending pricks!

It only came out after Jim died that he killed his wife and buried her in a mine shaft at Lightning Ridge. They say he did it with a tomahawk...

Gday Jim. Mate were you in high or low range on the clay pan

Thanks Jim love your videos, not sure what you tube are doing but they are now saying l havnt watched any of your shows...so wrong because l have and have been logged in...the mystery of Murdoch lol anyway thanks again Jim very informative very enjoyable.

This is why I don't go camping and traveling anymore. Too many people, rubbish and effluent. Luckily I have my own 30k acres of mountainous wilderness here in SW Qld.

Very nice. Thanks for sharing Jim. Good memories for sure. :-)
