Curdimurka Siding

Looking along the rail tracks to the water tower at Curdimurka Siding.

Curdimurka Siding

The water tower has the remains of a water softener beside it. I don't think it was a resin bed demineralisation plant like those  used to treat the water in the power station but something to help reduce the scaling of the water tubes in the locos.

Stuart Creek Bridge

The steel bridge over Stuart Creek. From what I can make out this water is permanent as it is spring fed. Judging by the water plant at the water tower I suspect it is saline. (I didn't climb down for a taste)

Stuart Creek Bridge

I think this is the second longest bridge on the line.
