Doing some off-road forwarding. This load looks quite impressive, but only weighed about 55000 kg (120 000lbs)
Ex Virgin Locomotives 86226 & 86205 were stabled in Bescot Yard awaiting forwarding to Long Marston for secure storage. 17th December 2006
(This photo is slightly out of since with the others I am posting up from Uncle Walter, fast forwarding a year from Antwerp in '44 to Berlin in '45, but the story about the mechanic pictured relates to an ealier incident.)
"The short fella was one of our mechanics, he got me into trouble he did. He was a driver the same as us, but then he became a mechanic. It was when we was driving from the Chateau to Antwerp, to work. It was during the winter, and you know what it's like trying to keep anything clean. Obviously we were going through muddy sites, and the wagons were covered in it. The wagons had to be inspected fairly regularly, somewhere in Brussels. Anyway, in Boom fire station they allowed us to use the hoses on the wagons, to clean them off. Well that was fine, but I went down there, and hosed it all down, and it wasn't too bad, but by the time I got back up to the Chateau it was freezing. I went to the garage where they were doing the vehicle checks, and he was there. My wagon was thick with ice by now. Of course you regularly had to pump grease all over the wagon, there were grease nipples all over it, which obviously I used to do, but because my wagon was all frozen underneath, he put in the report that it was in a filthy condition! Of course I had to go up before the platoon sergeant in the evening. He said "I've had a bad report about your wagon. Why?" And I told him, but he said something and I lost me temper and said "You can keep yer bloody wagon!" Of course that Cockney corporal I didn't get on with was there, he said "I'll get two men in!" Sergeant says "There is no need for that." Anyway next day I was in the Orderly Room, and I went in to see the officer, and they took the wagon off me, and I was working in the cookhouse. Best thing they ever did! I used to get up early, with the cooks. We used to light the fires and get the water boiling, and help the cooks get all the things going. And come mid-day I was off duty. I used to get meself spruced up, looking me prime, and I used to bugger off into Antwerp! This went on for ages! I don't know how it happened, the platoon sergeant said he didn't know anything about it. He asked what I had been doing, and when I told him I always finished mid-day, same as the early shift cooks, he said "I think you should have your bloody wagon back again!"
With all this spare time on me hands, I used to take photo's, around the Chateau. I used to get films for the lads, and take photographs of them. Then I used to take the film into Antwerp and get it printed. I could have made a good racket but I never did, so that's why they gave me my wagon back again! The camera was my mothers."
They say all good things must come to an end, sooner or later. On Thursday December 11th, the Central Oregon & Pacific would run one last train out of Weed to finish clearing all the cars out of California and forwarding them to Medford, Oregon barely 10 years after reopening of the line in November 2015.
With the closure of the RFP veneer mill in Weed, virtually no shippers remain on this nearly 100-mile section of the railroad. And thus before a maintenance embargo can be implemented, every railcar must be cleared out of the trackage affected. On this last run, the train would have nearly 50 cars by the time they reached the state line, making it quite possibly the biggest train over the Siskiyous since the SP or maybe even the RailAmerica years.
From dawn to dusk on Thursday, me and my buddy Luke would follow the train northbound as it slowly built in size. Many more people from as far north as Albany, and as far south as the bay area would show up to see the action (and it certainly lived up to the hype) even though the weather was not always ideal.
It is quite unfortunate that many railroaders and laborers' hard work of keeping the railroad open in recent years is all going to waste thanks to the closure and exodus of another. While there is still hope that the mill in Weed can be reopened under new ownership, only time will tell. Interchange traffic from the Rogue Valley might also still be in the cards, but only if Union Pacific cooperates. If not CORP will more than likely let the route rot like Tennessee Pass, and even pull out of the lease all together.
Shortly after leaving the wye at Weed for the last time, the engines running light approach the crossing for Old Edgewood Rd.

Slate horse trough beside Mintaro Institute. The slate quarried in the local quarries (opened 1857 & still in production) had many uses from street paving to wine vats.
“The Flag Stone Quarry at Mintaro is now open, and in working order. The undersigned is prepared to supply Flagstones of any reasonable size and thickness for Flooring, Cisterns, Chimney Pieces, Headstones, Sills, &c. The stone is of a deep blue colour, and has a perfectly smooth surface. All orders punctually attended to. Thompson Priest.” [Adelaide Observer 17 Oct 1857 advert]
“For Sale, adjoining Mintaro, a fine Eighty-Acre Agricultural Section, enclosed with Post and Rail Fence; Running Water throughout the year. This property contains a valuable Slate Quarry, from which large quantities of excellent Slate, have been and are still being sent to different parts of the colony. It adjoins the Patent Copper Company's Farm. Apply to Peter Brady, Mintaro.” [Register 7 Jul 1858 advert]
“Mr. Smith, late of the Burra, and now of the Mintaro Hotel. . . has also purchased, for £775, the paddock containing the famous slate quarry in the vicinity of the Company's farm, lately the property of Mr. P. Brady. The quarry is at present hired by Mr. Priest (whose term will expire in a few months) at a rental of £20 per annum. Mr. Priest, during his occupation, has succeeded in extracting a great quantity of very valuable slabs from the quarry, some of which have had surfaces of nearly 100 square feet.” [Adelaide Observer 31 Jul 1858]
“I observed this day, passing through our township, a slate for the Exhibition, from the Mintaro Slate Quarry. . . Mr. Priest forwarding it by his own team right through, to prevent accident in unloading, &c., at the railway. It is a most splendid piece of flagging. The measurement of it is 12 feet 1 inch in length, by 9 feet in breadth, and l¾ and one sixteenth inch in thickness. . . The flag forwarded is simply squared; the surface natural as it came from the quarry. Two flags were forwarded to the London Exhibition from this quarry, and received honorable mention. This quarry has been at work for the last 11 years, and the average number of workmen employed throughout the year is about 12.” [Advertiser 12 Oct 1867]
“Mintaro Slate Quarries, which are the property of Mr. Thompson Priest. They are situated at a short distance from the township. . . The produce of these quarries is admirably adapted for flagging purposes, for which it is considered superior to the Willunga slate, being of closer grain and not liable to shell off. Roofing slates, however, cannot be made. At present Mr. Priest has seven men employed.” [Express & Telegraph 13 Apr 1870]
“Mr. Priest, the proprietor of the famous slate quarries, is continually enlarging his business, having now a considerable trade with Victoria and New South Wales. He has opened up an increased extent of the quarries, and can supply our unrivalled flagging in almost any quantity. He has also lately introduced into Mintaro about thirty souls, nearly all newly arrived immigrants.” [Advertiser 7 Jul 1876]
“Mintaro. . . A company has also been formed to open a new slate quarry in close proximity to the slate quarry. Two blocks are already sunk — one about 12 or 13 feet, and the other somewhat less in depth. Slate has been struck of good color, but soft at present. It is intended to sink more holes to test the ground, but it will be some time before the same quality slate is produced as that at the old quarry.” [Northern Argus 4 Sep 1883]
“The Mintaro slate quarry will, no doubt, improve in its business, as it has passed solely into the hands of Mr. E. G. Priest, who has managed the business for a great number of years.” [Northern Argus 10 Sep 1889]
“It was generally thought that when the Mintaro slate quarry passed into a Melbourne firm's hands things would have improved, which is not the case; in fact, it was very much better under the former proprietors, for there is not one-third the men employed there now that there were some time ago.” [Northern Argus 25 Apr 1890]
“instructions to sell by auction. . . The Mintaro Slate Quarry, situate on the western half of Section No. 178, Hundred of Clare, South Australia, and comprising 40 Acres of Freehold Land. The quality of the Slate from this Quarry is well known and cannot be surpassed. The Quarry is situated about 4 miles from Mintaro Railway Station on the Main North line.” [Register 16 Jul 1891 advert]
“deputation which recently waited on the Minister of Public Works in Victoria and complained that that department was giving a preference to the Mintaro slates, imported from South Australia in the erection of public buildings to the detriment of the Castlemaine slate quarries.” [Northern Argus 3 Jun 1892]
“A meeting of the residents was held at the Devonshire Hotel on Monday afternoon, to consider the advisableness of trying to open up the quarry on the Chief Justice's land adjoining the present Mintaro flagstone quarries. . . Mr. Torr said that if the workmen would take an interest in the affair he was prepared to put £300 into the concern at once. . . There is very little doubt that the stone in the proposed quarry is the same as that in the present Mintaro quarries, and the cost of opening would not be so very great.” [Register15 Dec 1892]
“Mintaro. . . The flagstone quarries are kept busy, chiefly with orders from the neighboring States. At present a large number of wine vats, with a holding capacity of 1,470 gallons each, are in course of construction. Of late years there has been a growing demand for Mintaro flagstone wine vats, and they are steadily replacing the large wooden vats.” [Advertiser 23 Jan 1904]
“Mintaro is famous for its slate quarries, which contain an unlimited quantity of the best slate in the world. . . and can be raised in blocks 18 ft by 12 ft. Originally a Melbourne company worked a slate quarry, but liquidated after conducting business for some years. A local company was then formed, principally through the support of the late Mr James Torr, and the energy of the secretary (Mr W E Giles).” [Kapunda Herald 3 Jun 1904]
“Mintaro. . . Slate was first discovered in this neighborhood by Mr. Peter Brady, in the early, fifties. This was some distance south of the present quarry. From this quarry the discoverer procured a considerable quantity of stone, and afterwards leased the property to Mr. Thompson Priest, who worked the slate for 30 years. On the expiry of this lease several ineffectual attempts were made to develop the industry by Victorian capital. Owing mainly to the enterprise of Mr. W. E. Giles and the late Mr. James Torr, a limited liability company was formed in 1893. . . The present workings measure 300 ft. by 100 ft. by 120 ft. m depth. The strata are extremely well defined, and probably extend for several miles. The quarry is situated on a block of 15 acres, leased from Sir Samuel Way. It is about five miles from the railway-station, but is not on the site of the original quarry. . . The massive stones are raised by steel cranes, worked by a steam engine. They are loaded on trucks running on short tramlines.” [Advertiser 8 Jun 1910]
“The stone is applied to various purposes. Monuments and pavements are largely manufactured from Mintaro slate. . . It is also used as kerbstones, outer stairways, ledges in lavatories and laboratory tables. On account of its smoothness and evenness it is very much sought after for billiard tables and electric tables. . . in flooring cheese and butter factories. For similar reasons it is employed by vignerons for fermenting tanks.” [Chronicle 11 Jun 1910]
THOMPSON PRIEST
“PRIEST. — [Died] On the 10th inst., at his residence, Mintaro, Thompson Priest, J.P., aged 68, proprietor of the Mintaro Flagstone Quarries. A colonist of 33 years.” [Northern Argus 11 May 1888]
“Mr. Thompson Priest, J.P. . . landed on these shores in 1855, and he shortly afterwards located himself at Mintaro. For some years he was a member of the Clare District Council, and after the separation from Clare he became a member of the Stanley District Council, over which he ably presided for the last 18 years. Soon after he settled down in Mintaro he became the lessee of the celebrated local flagstone quarries, and his name in connection therewith is known in this and the other colonies. He was also a Commissioner of the North Midland Road Board for several years.” [Northern Argus 11 May 1888]
JAMES SAMPSON TORR
“TORR. — [Died] On the 15th November, at his residence, Mintaro, James Sampson Torr, aged 78 years.” [Register 20 Nov 1894]
“Mr. James Torr, of Mintaro. . . came to South Australia in 1847. . . He had had large experience in mining, both in Devonshire and Cornwall, as well as in Spain. Shortly after his arrival he went to the Burra Mine. . . he visited the Victorian gold fields, and was one of the fairly lucky ones. Returning to South Australia, he settled in the neighbourhood of Mintaro and entered into farming pursuits, connecting with them the management of the Devonshire Hotel, Mintaro. . . there are not many counties in South Australia in which he has not had land at one time or another. He had been known for many years as one of the largest landowners in the colony. . . Mr. Torr was married twice. His only son is dead, but he has several grandchildren.” [Register 21 Nov 1894]

The Former Punt Hotel, or the Court House Hotel:
Pastoral stations were first established along the Darling River in the 1840s. These were followed by small settlements, which were built along the riverbanks to provide supplies and services for the early settlers and the drovers, who were overlanding their stock.
Initially, Wilcannia was important as a crossing point, particularly for stock moving south to the Melbourne market.
It is recorded that 'Drovers were happy to avail themselves of Charles Smith's new punt and pontoon bridge, that could carry their sheep across the river at a rate of 4000 an hour!' The original crossing point for the punt was on the low bank at the bottom of Cleaton Street.
The construction of the Wilcannia lift bridge ended the use of the punt, so it was sent upstream to Louth.
As people would cross on the punt, they would come to the nearby Punt Hotel. The first hotel on the site was a timber building which burnt down in July 1876. The premises was later recorded as the Court House Hotel, due to its proximity to the Wilcannia Court House across the road.
In the 1950s the Court House Hotel Cook, Dulcie Bodsworth won over the hearts of locals, including the police stationed across the road, with her exceptional baking. However, her sweet exterior hit her true nature, that of a cold-hearted killer of three men. Her daughter eventually testified against her in one of the most important murder trials of the 1960s.
The Frew, Wright and Co Store, or Rich and Co. Warehouse:
This warehouse served the river trade and appears to be a circa 1870s structure. The warehouse is thought to be located on the site of a shepherd’s hut which served the Mount Murchison Station. The shepherd’s hut is thought to have been the building which served as a post office, courthouse, and venue for church services prior to those buildings being erected. In May 1875 a report on the town described 'the extensive premises and store of Mr Kirkpatrick, wine and spirit merchant, receiving, forwarding and commission agent, who in conjunction with Mr Frew carries out the business of stock and station agent'. This store is identified as being opposite the site of the lock-up and is assumed to be this building.
Aboriginal History of Wilcannia:
Wilcannia is located on the Darling River, about halfway between Bourke and Wentworth. The river is known as Barka by the local Aboriginal people or Barkandji, literally people belonging to the Barka, and it is surrounded on all sides by Barkandji speaking people. The people from along the Barka and varying distances either side from near Bourke down to Wentworth all recognised the Barkandji language as their primary language, but they were divided into subgroups with different dialects of this one language. The Barkandji language is very different from all the neighbouring languages including the adjoining Ngiyampaa/Ngemba to the east, the Kulin, and Murray River languages to the south, and the Yardli and Thura-Yura language groups to the west and north.
Barkandji have a unique culture and depended heavily on the grinding or pounding of seeds on large grinding dishes or mortars and pestles, such as grass, portulaca, and acacia seeds. In the riverine areas, there is a strong emphasis on aquatic plant food tubers and corms, and fish, yabbies, turtles, mussels, and shrimps as well as water birds and their eggs. Insect foods were also important, such as parti or witchetty grubs along the rivers and creeks, and termite larvae in the Mallee country. Large and small canoes were cut out, necessitating ground edge axes, and string manufacture for fish nets, hunting nets, bags, and belts was an important part of the culture. The Wilcannia area still shows tangible evidence of traditional life in the form of canoe trees, coolamon trees, middens, heat retainer ovens, ashy deposits, stone tool quarries and artefacts.
Thomas Mitchell led the first exploring party to reach Wilcannia and gave the Barkandji their first unpleasant taste of what was to come. Mitchell travelled via the Bogan to the Darling River near Bourke and then down the river to Wilcannia then Menindee, reaching it in July 1835. Mitchell was harassed by Barkandji as he did not understand that he had to properly negotiate permission for use of water, grass, land to camp on etc., and in addition his men were abusing women behind his back and breaking all the rules. He gave them names such as the Fire Eaters and the Spitting Tribe as they tried to warn him off. His comments show that the Barkandji groups he met occupied "different portions of the river", and that they owned the resources in their territories including the water in the river. The exclusive possession enjoyed by the Barkandji and the need to obtain permission before using any of their resources is demonstrated by the following comment about the "Spitting Tribe" from the river near Wilcannia:
"The Spitting Tribe desired our men to pour out the water from their buckets, as if it had belonged to them; digging, at the same time a hole in the ground to receive it when poured out; and I have more than once seen a river chief, on receiving a tomahawk, point to the stream and signify that we were then at liberty to take water from it, so strongly were they possessed with the notion that the water was their own"
A hill 15 kilometres north of Wilcannia was named Mount Murchison by Mitchell and this became the name of the very large original station that included the location that was to become Wilcannia township.
In 1862 the area northwest of Mount Murchison Station was still frontier country with continual conflict. Frederic Bonney was based at Mount Murchison homestead and then nearby Momba homestead from 1865 to 1881 and he bluntly states in his notebooks that in this period "natives killed by settlers - shot like dogs"
Bonney recorded extensive detail about the lives, language, culture, and personalities of the Aboriginal people at Mount Murchison/Momba and left us with extremely significant series of photos of Aboriginal people taken in this period. He does not elaborate about the way the station was set up except for his comment above. Frederic Bonney not only respected and looked after the local people but he sympathised with them, worked with them, and respected them. The Bonney papers and photographs are a treasure of information about the Aboriginal people living there between 1865 and 1881. Bonney published a paper in 1884 but long after he had returned to England to live he campaigned for the better treatment of the Aboriginal people, and he tried to educate the public about the complexity of Aboriginal culture.
Bonney names about 44 individual Aboriginal people living at Momba in this period, and one group photo from the same period shows a total of 38 people. Descendants of some of the people Bonney describes still live in Wilcannia and surrounding areas today.
Aboriginal people worked on Moomba and Mount Murchison Station, and from very early times fringe camps grew up around Wilcannia. The land straight across the River from the Wilcannia post office was gazetted as an Aboriginal Reserve, and this became the nucleus of a very large fringe camp that grew into a substantial settlement spaced out along the river bank in the 1930s to the 1970s. By 1953 the Aboriginal Welfare Board had built a series of 14 barrack-like and inappropriately designed houses in an enlarged reserve, now an attractive tree lined settlement known as the Mission (although never a mission it was beside a Catholic School and clinic, thus the name). Today Aboriginal people are the majority of the population of the vibrant, creative, and culturally active town of Wilcannia, and the main users of the post office facilities.
Wilcannia History:
The first secure pastoralists at Mount Murchison were the brothers Hugh and Bushby Jamieson of Mildura Station on the Murray, who in 1856 took up Tallandra and Moorabin blocks, later extended with other blocks and named Mount Murchison Station. Captain Cadell's paddlesteamer Albury was the first to travel up the Darling, landing flour and other stores for the Jamiesons at Mount Murchison in February 1859. The Albury then loaded 100 bales of wool from their woolshed and brought it down to Adelaide. At this time there were no other stations on the Darling between Mt Murchison and Fort Bourke. A little later:
"An enterprising attempt has just been made by Mr. Hugh Jamieson, of Mount Murchison, to bring fat sheep speedily to Adelaide. Mr. Jamieson having chartered Captain Cadell's steamer, Albury, that vessel was prepared, and received on board at Mildura 550 fine fat sheep. These were landed at Moorundee last Tuesday, after a rapid passage of two days, all the sheep being in splendid condition when put ashore"
Jamiesons sold in 1864 to Robert Barr Smith and Ross Reid from Adelaide. The brothers Edward and Frederic Bonney were leasing some adjacent blocks and possibly worked at Mount Murchison for these owners. In 1875 they bought the Mount Murchison/Momba complex, one of the largest stations in New South Wale. In 1865 it was known as Mount Murchison, in 1881 it was all known as Momba, later splitting into smaller stations. The original Mount Murchison Station homestead block was also known as Head Station or Karannia, the Barkandji name for the area just north of the town near where the Paroo River comes into the Barka. The original Mount Murchison woolshed was located on what is now Baker Park, Wilcannia, which is adjacent to the current Post Office.
The site of Wilcannia was selected on Mount Murchison Station in 1864 by John Chadwick Woore, who was appointed Commissioner of Crown Lands of the Albert District in 1863 and was based at Wilcannia. The town was proclaimed in 1866 and in the 1870s it became a coaching centre for prospectors exploiting the region's gold, copper, silver, and opal resources, and the administrative, service, and shipping centre for the pastoral industry. Wilcannia was incorporated as a municipality in 1881, and around this time it became New South Wales biggest inland port and Australia's third largest inland port (after Echuca Victoria and Morgan South Australia). 'The Queen of the River' or 'Queen City of the West'. At the height of its prosperity around 1880, the town boasted a population of 3,000. According to the Register of the National Estate, during 1887 alone, 222 steamers took on 26,550 tonnes of wool and other goods at Wilcannia wharves. The value of goods coming down the Darling River in 1884 was 1,359,786 pounds, and included over 30,000 bales of wool. The customs house, another Wilcannia stone building now demolished, located immediately between the Post office and the river bank and wharfs, took 17,544 pounds in customs duties in 1889. Paddlesteamers gradually declined, particularly after the 1920s, although a few continued to trade up and down the river into the 1940's, still remembered by elderly Wilcannia residents.
Wilcannia in the 1870s and into the 1900s was the centre of the pastoral and mining boom of the far west of New South Wales, and it was the centre of the paddlesteamer river trade from the Upper Darling to the Murray River and outlets such as Adelaide and Melbourne. The frequent dry seasons and lack of water in the river led to other methods of transporting goods being used, such as camel trains, but when the water came down the river trade always returned. The river trade built Wilcannia's fine buildings, but it was also its undoing, as the New South Wales government intervened to reduce the river trade because goods were moving to and from Adelaide and Melbourne, not Sydney.
Plans to improve navigation on the river were suggested in 1859 after Captain Cadell's first successful voyage up the Darling that was followed by other paddlesteamers. Cadell gave evidence at a New South Wales Select Committee that the Darling would be become reliable for boats if a system of locks were built at very reasonable cost that would hold back water during the drier seasons. The plans to build locks along the Darling River to make navigation more consistent were investigated again and again, but were not realised because the New South Wales government believed trade would benefit Victoria and South Australia.
After the opening of the Sydney to Bourke railway line in 1885, Wilcannia lost its status as the major commercial centre of the Darling River. The trade from the far North West New South Wales then tended to go to the railhead at Bourke and straight to Sydney. There were plans in the 1880s for the railway to be run from Cobar to Wilcannia, however this plan was continuously put off. Plans for a railway to Wilcannia continued to be made throughout the 1890's and early 1900's, and including a proposal from Cobar to Broken Hill then linking to South Australia as the Great Western Railway. In 1907 "a large petition was forwarded to Sydney from Wilcannia for presentation to the Premier urging immediate construction of the Cobar-Wilcannia Railway, and subsequent extension to Broken Hill".
The New South Wales government attempt to stop trade leaking out of the state resulted in their refusal to build a railway to Wilcannia (as goods tended to go to Wilcannia and down the river), or to extend the railway to South Australia for the same reasons. The bend in the river on the north side of town celebrates this government intransigence by its name "Iron Pole Bend", the iron pole said to have been placed at the surveyed location of the proposed railway bridge. New South Wales eventually built a railway through the low population Ivanhoe route to the south of Wilcannia reaching Broken Hill in 1927, and even then it stopped at Broken Hill and did not join the South Australian line until 1970. The link between Broken Hill and the South Australian railway was provided from 1884 to 1970 by the narrow gauge private railway 'the Silverton Tramway', which also took trade from Wilcannia.
The combination of missing out on the railway and locking of the river, the severe drought on 1900 - 1901, and the damage to the pastoral economy by drought, rabbits, and over grazing, led to a down turn in Wilcannia's prospects, leaving the fine stone buildings such as the post office languishing as tangible reminders of a time when Wilcannia was known as the "Queen City of the West" and was the largest inland port in New South Wales and the third largest inland port in Australia.

They say all good things must come to an end, sooner or later. On Thursday December 11th, the Central Oregon & Pacific would run one last train out of Weed to finish clearing all the cars out of California and forwarding them to Medford, Oregon barely 10 years after reopening of the line in November 2015.
With the closure of the RFP veneer mill in Weed, virtually no shippers remain on this nearly 100-mile section of the railroad. And thus before a maintenance embargo can be implemented, every railcar must be cleared out of the trackage affected. On this last run, the train would have nearly 50 cars by the time they reached the state line, making it quite possibly the biggest train over the Siskiyous since the SP or maybe even the RailAmerica years.
From dawn to dusk on Thursday, me and my buddy Luke would follow the train northbound as it slowly built in size. Many more people from as far north as Albany, and as far south as the bay area would show up to see the action (and it certainly lived up to the hype) even though the weather was not always ideal.
It is quite unfortunate that many railroaders and laborers' hard work of keeping the railroad open in recent years is all going to waste thanks to the closure and exodus of another. While there is still hope that the mill in Weed can be reopened under new ownership, only time will tell. Interchange traffic from the Rogue Valley might also still be in the cards, but only if Union Pacific cooperates. If not CORP will more than likely let the route rot like Tennessee Pass, and even pull out of the lease all together.
At Gazelle siding, 35 cars await pickup after being assembled and brought up from Weed the previous day. 5 loads of veneer, two empty bulkheads, and 28 empty woodchip hoppers make up the cut.
This is where the fun will happen. For now, it's forwarding whatever comes down the serial interface from the USB socket. I'd quite like to get an ethernet shield so I can remove the laptop from the equation. Spot the dodgy soldering, wrapped in masking tape.

2004. On the warehouse floor again. At TQ express they believe in the tradition of saying "Merry Christmas" to those they cannot greet in person, by sending their own home-made Christmas card each year. For the small Manchester Airport company used to dealing by telephone, fax or email this is the perfect way to put a face to the name with a personal seasonal greeting to customers and business partners around the world..
