Bli Bli Pies & Randy Ducks - It Can Only Be Moreton! Part 3.

DAVID LOW BRIDGE SAFEWORKING!

Below is a number of shots taken of the safeworking arrangements for the road/rail David Low Bridge in Bli Bli (Queensland)!
Although taken a year after closure, all was unchanged.
A couple of days after these were taken PETRIE pushed three flats across the bridge to remove the last lengths on the other side and then spent the next two days helping with removing the track across the bridge.
The selection here is a small part of what I took on the day. If anyone is interested in modelling this operation I would be happy to supply some others.

Regards
Brad

  2. I like how they had Square Target Boards on the Level Crossing lights.

    I took photos of all the active crossings on the system and took measurements as I would like to model something based on this system some day :) .
