DO YOU REMEMBER?

  • The times you waited for a ‘Red Hen’ to take you down the line to Adelaide?
  • The hot summer days the sooty smoke wafted in through the wide open doors.?
  • When the Station Master supervised arrivals and departures with whistle and flag?
  • When you first spotted that stranger whom you later married?
  • When the rocking rhythm of the carriage sent you to sleep on the way home from a hard day’s work?
