KORONG VALE

Korong Vale in 1885 looking north. The loco is a rebuilt J class 2-4-0. At the extreme right is what looks like a carriage dock for loading
horse drawn carriages onto special flat wagons which were then attached to passenger trains, a service only able to afforded by the wealthy.

B 65 passes Korong Vale A box as it arrives Korong Vale from Bendigo on an empty wheat train. Jan. 1980

The home signal indicates that T 341 was departing Korong Vale to the Boort line but I can't remember if this is what was happening
or if T 341 was just shunting. The two tracks on the left were called the "engine sidings" Jan. 1980
