Flat Crossing
ROD No 24 on the flat crossing of the NSWGR lines bringing empty wagons either from the coal staithes on the Hunter River whence '60 Miler' ships ' took the coal the 60 miles to Sydney or else the wagons have been repaired in the Commonwealth Engineering workshops. There was a rail connection onto the NSWGR lines and presumably this was relied on when this crossing was removed in 1973, no more than 3 years after this picture was taken.
