Update From Barnacle Bob's

On Saturday morning while out visiting a local hobby shop, I made my way back via Barnacle Bob's.  I dropped off some locomotive oil and then went on a tour of the layout.

OMG!  Pictures follow.

What is a country setting without some of the local wildlife.  Here 5 cockatoos are enjoying themselves.

Goannas are in this picture - basking in the sunshine on the rocks

Kangaroos having a drink or water


The creek that the layout is named after,

An old windmill blade behind the shed.


The local stock yards


A car has gone for a dip in the water.  The local water police are checking for any occupants and supervising the recovery operations.


While on the wharf, the local detective has apprehended the drunk driver and put him in handcuffs. 

A local crane to assist with loading/unloading activities on the wharf.


One of a number of my industrial bins painted up by Barnacle Bob.

The local rural fire station and the town toilet block.

One of the local residents hanging out the washing

I think that is Lefty having a tinkle in the bushes 

I'm sure that is Miguel painting his boat before it goes on another trip up the creek.  Hopefully he doesn't forget his paddles.

An old boat rusting away on the banks of the creek.

Someone has left a shopping trolley near the water's edge.

  1. Fantastic pictures Craig. Albeit from the mysterious 'Barnacle Bob'. Seems worthy of a whole magazine article if you ask me. Maybe you should twist his arm?
