Aboard the EmmyLou Australian Vintage Paddle steamers, Save Our Murray & Heritage.

A good flick of a close up of the Steam engine fire box the con rods to the main driveshaft to the paddles. Note back in the day they did not just make things good for its function but took time to make them look with flare and real eye candy. Solid brass Taps and fittings, I love the vintage green and black combination. I have a couple of still power plants laying around my yard i intend to restore and put back to sevice on our other property in a shed. I have a photo of a steam crane here somewhere, may even a flick, It was used on the rail ways come have a look at my other flicks if you enjoyed the one and have a moment of piece. Other things to do in this region are Horse riding, How about a champaign Breakfest in an air Baloon over bendigo, Plenty of sidht seeing and check out the vinyards and Ned Kelly History anoung other infamous Bush rangers all within a stone throw of Echuca, Sovereign Hill At Ballarat is a must see for a peice of true Australian history Famouse for the Eureka Stockade Battle an Uprising of Goldminers Sick of goverment stand over on Taxes and harsh treatment Led by Peter Laylor the stockade was built and the battle was on. Relics and structures still stand today to bring you back to a time of the harsh way the settlment of Australia was.
