Something not quite right here. The trusses and decking don't seem to exist on any other pictures of the wonderful Gundagai railway (and road) bridges (well worth a visit if you are nearby). I think this picture is of another bridge altogether, as are the two companion photos in State Records, investigator.records.nsw.gov.au/asp/photosearch/photo.asp... and investigator.records.nsw.gov.au/asp/photosearch/photo.asp... Ref. - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gundagai,_New_South_Wales#Bridges_o... So if is not Gundagai, I wonder where it is?

Hmmn ... yes. I do believe your uncertainty is valid beachcomberaustralia.

Gotta love the handwritten clearance sign. Here's another one - get ready to duck!

Ha, how did we manage before Google street view? Have you got the Google Earth plugin for Google Maps? - triple the fun!

Apparently a new railway bridge opened in 1902, replacing an older one. There is also a view of the bridge by the Charles Kerry studio dated as 1875 - 1897 at the National Library of Australia which gives a wonderfully long view of the bridge. It is not a match with the one shown in the photograph above. see here: nla.gov.au/nla.pic-vn4312996 Here's another old view of the two bridges: nla.gov.au/nla.pic-an8526479-826

Per the website listed below, George Lowe Sutton was the manager of the Cowra farm. The farm was established in 1904 and focused on experimental farming techniques. search.records.nsw.gov.au/agencies/2820
