Saturday 26 June Tully and Mourilyan


As the result of a work commitment in Townsville, I took the chance of a quick trip to far north Queensland. Unfortunately, north of the Cardwell Range, wet weather prevailed (in June??) and so the visit to Tully was very disappointing. I did however manage to see the finished historical exhibit in the Tully mill yard, which is very well done.
I also saw the DH loco that was obtained from Mackay Sugar last year.

 












At the old Mourilyan Mill site, the old social club is now a 'play centre and cafe'. The ex-South Johnstone Drewry locomotive outside still looks very complete.
