    Thanks for the open floor, 5915 Smile

    Not much to go on with this pic, so a couple of clues to kick it along: it's in NSW and near the terminus of the line.

    More clues (different photographic angles) available if need be.

    A good ways away from the rumba at Tumba.

    Photographing the mileage post was serendipitous; I'd actually stopped to snap an unrelated piece of "infrastructure".

    All answers from diverse parts of the state, none correct; one however, is in the neighbourhood, loosely speaking.

    I might try a long shot here. I can't recall any mileposts on the Gulgong-Maryvale line but I'll plump for the Gulgong end of that based purely on Wurx's cryptic clue with Infrastructre in inverted commas? 8)

    Not Walgett nor Gulgong.

    Shouldn't have used the inverted commas, nothing cryptic meant; the infrastructure in question is of the most basic nature.

    Should I post those extra pix?

    Spiritman has it Smile

    This is the infrastructure I was photographing: the southernmost West St levelxing, on the edge of town.

    This view is looking Up, with the mileage post visible in the distance.

    Looking Down.

    Looking north at the levelxing. The tops of the silos are discernible in the distance.

    It doesn't. Perhaps this is the pic you are trying to post?

    It might perhaps be Coles Beach?

    Thank you Graham4405 that is the one, and Yes it is Coles Beach the branch (not sure if it is connected to the mainline) that heads off along the Don River near Davenport. It was too easy!

    Over to you!

    Can we start with a state? Looks like it could be western NSW or Queensland.
