Cunnamulla

Left this morning hoping to go on a Bilby tour, but, alas, everyone is heading to Birdsville races, so no spots available. Save that for next time. Went shopping instead, and managed coffee too. Heading south, stopped at Angellala Bridge where Australia's most powerful explosion in transport history happened. 2014 Truck carrying 53t of Ammonium Nitrate caught fire, crashed and exploded, with a blast radius of 1km. Completely demolished the road bridge and railway bridge that had stood since 1897. Not sure how no one died, but fire trucks and police cars weren't so lucky. Then onto Cunnamulla, great museum, so much to see, got kicked out when they closed. Also found the Robber Tree, bit sad looking, was where a guy shot someone after robbing a bank, ran off, climbed the tree and hid until a sheepdog found him. They hung him 10 weeks later.Leer más
