I did my apprenticeship as an electrician at Tully Sugar Mill. 1986 to 1989. Great place to work, great people. It's interesting to see how it's changed. I still have family in Tully and get back every couple of years to visit. Thanks for a great video.
thanks for sharing. nice of you to show the entire process and not just the trains . a question if i may, if i heard the tour guide correctly , none of the product is consumed localy ? thanks .
Yes, that's correct. Tully is owned by the Chinese, and I believe most of the product goes there, with the balance being sold on the open market. Of all the mills in Queensland, I believe Bundaberg is the only one that devotes a large percentage of production to domestic consumption. Maybe others can shed more light on this.
I worked on a Cane farm in gordonvale during the cane crushing season and on a cane loco as a offsider
What a lucky guy, you got to see that in real life. Thanks for sharing it with us. That was interesting.
Wonderful video.
Have had a couple of great visits to Tully for cane trains.
Mill was really welcoming.
