My Aussie Mum fell in love with a Marine and came to the US on the Monterrey, So I love the song--my Mum did not get on the train, though, even though it all bought brides from all over, even Melbourne, where Mum was from. There was a train strike! So she and 3 other girls rented a taxi and got to Sydney that way--their story made all the papers. The song gets the right mix of tears and joy--especially saying goodbye to their mothers.
My aunt did what your mum did.Apparently, when the family were seeing her off, at Circular Quay, everyone was crying and the youngest cousin said, "I wish she never met him".On a brighter note, she lived at Lake Tahoe and her family were very kind to me, when I came over for a holiday.
