Great video Peter. The sound of the trains took me back. My father was a train guard 1960s . Good to see you are still young at heart mate. I’d have to have a swing and a play also . Fantastic choice in music .Well done 👍🇦🇺 22:13

Nice video Peter 🤟👍

Glad you enjoyed it

[@WesternAustraliaNowAndThen]

Really interesting video. Good to try and find some of the old rail lines. A chap called Don Copley used to have an amazing website all about the rail history of W.A. but I think something must have happened to him because his website suddenly vanished. There is still most of it on the Wayback Machine but it tends to be a bit broken up and hard to navigate.

[@peterhewitson71]

Thanks for the info! Will have a look

[@Kiwiwanderer]

Really interesting video, thank you. I’m a kiwi 🥝 wanting to hike and van australia but am a bit nervous about the snakes, spiders etc…do you meet many in WA?

[@peterhewitson71]

Hi I'm from NZ aswell , in 40 years have only seen a handful of snakes you just stay clear no issues, spiders the same , mosquito s are a bigger problem,some time a bit like sand flies back home
