Bathurst, NSW.

Castle Class 5051 Earl Bathurst on static display at Toddington some years ago.
Originally named Drysllwyn Castle, she acquired her new name in 1937. Her old name was acquired by classmate 7018 built circa 1947.
5051 was withdrawn from Llanelli in 1963 and sold for scrap to Woodham Bros in Barry, from where she was rescued by the Great Western Society at Didcot and fully restored.
had a need to go to Bathurst for a work trip and deliberated about whether to take my camera or rely on my phone. As I didn't know whether I would actually have any free time, I decide dto rely on my new iphone 7 plus for the day and "test it out" if I had the time. This is one of the images I took when I went for a short stroll in the morning. The Bathurst Courthouse (circa 1880) faces Russell Street and is Neo-Classical with an octagonal Renaissance dome. It was designed by colonial architect James Barnet and is in the heart of this rural town. The courthouse is definitely an impressive building and is regarded by the National Trust as 'one of Australia's finest examples of Victorian public architecture'. The entire structure is 81 metres long and 45 metres wide.

This is the oldest of the 3 Raptors working in Bathurst, a 2012 model with the now previous ACCO cab, came across this one early doing the collections in Kelso. The signature green and blue striping along with the wording and council logo is just enough to cut through the plain white look on the Bathurst trucks, makes them look good.

Bathurst Basin is a small triangular basin adjoining the main harbour of the city of Bristol, England. The basin takes its name from Charles Bathurst, who was a Bristol MP in the early 19th century
On 21 November 1888 the Basin was the scene of a serious explosion and fire. The ketch United was laden with 310 barrels of naphtha, distilled from coal tar in Brislington, and ready for departure to London. The cargo had been loaded the previous day at Welsh Back and the Master, Henry Cartwright, was now waiting for strong winds to drop. Knowing the risk of fire for this flammable cargo, all flames had been banned from around the vessel and it had been kept in the entrance lock, not the main basin, overnight. Just after 11am, a sudden explosion rocked the basin

Machattie Park was formally opened in December 1890. The park is built on the site of the old Bathurst Gaol, which was demolished in 1888 to make way for the park. .
.
Machattie Park is an historically significant example of a late 19th century Victorian country town park. It exhibits the principal elements typical of the Victorian period in terms of the form and layout and is particularly valuable because of the quality of the decorative features. Features include the Bandstand, the Caretakers Cottage, Crago Fountain, Fernery, Lake Spencer and the Munro Drinking Fountain..
.
Additionally, the park has a valuable collection of mature and majestic trees that are used either informally or formally as avenue plantings. Most of these trees are not natives of Australia. Particularly important are the avenues of Huntington Elms bordering the park as well as a unique layered elm hedge. Some of the fine specimens of exotic trees include, Bunya Pine, Atlas Cedar, Deodar Cedar, Red Beech, English Oak, Pin Oak, Wellingtonia, Chinese Elm and Silver Elm. Together, they contrive to make it one of the prize examples of a Victorian Park within New South Wales..
.
Apart from the park's individual importance, it is also essential to recognise it as one of the components of the Bathurst Central Conservation Area which, in preserving the oldest settlement west of the Blue Mountains, as a major importance to the heritage of Australia.
