Title: Just an historical Mine photo!

I also found this snap interesting, it was marked Screening pre 1955

I notice the narrow guage railway with the railway side tipping cars ("kokopan" - is that correct?).  So it was before 1968/69 when all the narrow guage tracks were lifted.

Where it is, is a another question as it could be near one of the old screening plants or No 4 plant.

Cant you zoom out a  bit Michael?

Sorry Malcom, thats the size of the original...no cropping on this one...... I have scanned 1254 photo's this week alone from a source..... still more to go..... almost all those pics are prior to 1979...... Like I said, once I have finished the whole lot, I will post, free of charge a dvd or two to any member of this forum.... just need a little bit more time....

@ Mike, i have cropped to 700 pixel and reposted
