Railway Sleeper Sawmills
Update: 2018-06-12
Description
I catch up with Bob and Beryl Johnston at their place near Charters Towers. Bob worked on the railway in the sleeper mills. Cutting timber sleepers for the railway line. Beryl talks about her time as a railway workers wife, bringing up a young family in a tent on the railway in the 1950's. Before moving to Charters Towers to work at Mossman Hall, a large psychiatric hospital in its time. Hope you enjoy our yarn.
