I've passed that stage! But I can usually get a site visit in here and there to get extra detail. Luckily we never have that sort of heat to deal with

is it possible to get a location of ware the wrecks in the pics are, as i am traveling around the pilbra working with Monodelphous and mostly work near Karatha at Cape Lambert, Tom Price,Parrabadoo, Hedland (home)in th pilbra for me and other areas.
i might not be able to get anything, but would be nice for a look

G'day Maurice,

No worries, I'll pm you the station's details. It's not far out of Roebourne on the road to Python pool.

I've been out there a few times since and bought back a FB sedan that I have since stripped for parts as the body was well beyond saving. There is not a lot left on the other vehicles though but as you said it is still worth a look. There is a heap of other old crap come machinery stuff, cars, trucks and motor bikes as well.

The station manager is a really friendly bloke and and is avid landcruiser collector. The station homestead and shearing sheds are pretty cool as well being built around the 1880's out of pretty much what ever was at there disposal at the time. It would have been a pretty wild and isolated place in the 1880's.
