21st February
2010
I
drove to Lyndoch to get some photo’s of the
former Rail Station & Yards in Lyndoch, I
can remember my wife’s family who live in
Williamstown saying when they were children
they use to catch the Train at Lyndoch to get
to town.
I had a look around the track through town for
evidence of a platform and it wasn’t hard to
find. There’s a main cement
platform southern side and a smaller metal
& cement platform northern side the side
the current track runs along.
The width between the two platforms shows
there was once two tracks in the past between
the two Platforms to pick up Passengers in the
good old days. |

R.I.P.
Nuriootpa Railway Station. The vandals
have spray painted it, smashed it, wrecked it
and the pigeons and white ants have probably
helped along the way too... This be a view of
the S.A.R. in ruins. That would sum up some
of the shots I and am sure many other people
along the way would have captured shots of
broken down buildings, felled signals? Wrecked
items of the S.A.R. railways scene/era.

Tin shed on platform. My guess it was a take-out and
pickup shed when the station was unattended.
|

Dusty shed /shelves, poor lighting of the inside view
of the ERECTION on the tin shed on platform.
|

Waiting for passenger train that never comes.

The
end of the line and yard there are lots of trees,
and somewhere in amongst the undergrowth there is a
small turntable. Here I tried to take a pic of it, but was unable to
see too much of the thing.
