[QUOTE="just starting, post: 493076, member: 14279"] There are no silly questions, Mackka. I forgot until you have just mentioned it, but i think he did say to me there could have been a siding. Looking at these pics makes me think the bridge he was talking about may have been a pedestrian bridge at the end of the line and not a bridge that had a train go over it ,like i thought he said. I have an uncle who has recently retired from the railways and worked in and around ballarat for just over 50 years. I`ll be catching up with him next week, so i`ll pose the question regarding this siding . He will know. When the rail line was mentioned ,this bloke did say it was an old rail line and you can see remnants of it from one of the side streets. It is the next street to a rat run i use around town and i haven`t noticed any trains , but i may be wrong. Funny we haven`t had any news ,locally about where this site is at . The way things work around here is there is a big story and then silence and then out of the blue, the story is all over the news again. Still a wait and see sort of thing. FOZ [/QUOTE]
