Excellent wonderful video. My grandfather and grandmother moved from holland to Northam just after WWll, they lived in a rail camp while helping to build the Northam line. I now live in kojonup were i regularly walk my dogs along the disused 73 line. This video meant alot to me and my family's and friends because we all had a strong dependence on the the rail ove 3 generations. Thank you for posting this wonderful video it really does bring back so many memories.

2024 & I'd say 1925 - 60 was where this State was at. Since then, slow decline.

Brilliant footage here! I wouldn’t like to be near the firebox on a 40 degree day tho. Would’ve been hell for the poor fireman and driver

The pronunciations of "Karri" and "Donnelly River" is quaint to say the least.
