I am a terminus-Aboriginal named sleepy place that comes alive at night, bit bushy tailed and up the road from the white cockatoo-

Not Rumulla- and you are right I wonder how you got that one-but it certainly is a sleepy spot, but I don't believe it ever comes alive

Well, the "White Cockatoo" is a nudie resort at Mossman, and Rumula is the nearest terminus I could think of!

Ah yes-we called it Ashtray Bay-but in any case way too far north for the real location we are chasing after-need to get a bit Coal-der

Yes you are right- Thangool is the Aboriginal word for possum a nocturnal animal and was the terminus of the Callide branch for many years after being cut back from Lawgi and lost it place when cut back in the last decade to Biloela

How sad is that!
Has anyone here seen Graeme Connor's film clip for 'These Uncertain Times'. It was filmed in Esk and some scenes have the railway station in the background!

Excellent photo, but wrong thread, i'm afraid. This is the *cryptic* thread. The "where is it" is down the hall.
