Decided to go across to Tom Price to catch up with Wendy and Ron. Took the test and got our permit and went down the Access Road. Pulled up when we saw this coming..with toots and waves and approximately 250 wagons, these are beasts of trains
Having done the mine trip at Newman we thought it only fair to give the opposition a go...so Tom Price Mine here we come.
when you see tunnels like these and the train pulling out at about 2k's an hour while being loaded...it makes you think if it will hold...all good!!
We also took the opportunity to go up Mount Nameless. This is the highest accessible mountain in Western Australia. Great view..and it gave us a chance to use Toby's low range that had not had a work out for a while.
We also saw a mine blast from above..quite nifty, with roads blocked off and a cloud a red dust hanging in the air.
With all the rain the vegetation was lush and green...we looked forward to Dales Gorge with the hope that the rain had changed it from the last time we had seen it!.
