    The Royal party arrived at Katoomba station from Lithgow, travelled by motorcade to Echo Point for a civic reception and then to Leura station from where they DEPARTED for Sydney. Our Most Gracious Majesty is actually saying farewell to Premier J. J. Cahill, the gent on the right, that is why the gate on the carriage landing is closed.

    From the official time table:

    "LEURA’S FAREWELL
    Her Majesty will alight from the left hand side of her car and will be met by the State Minister and his wife.
    Her Majesty will be farewelled on the roadway by the Mayor and Mayoress and the Town Clerk as she walks towards the station entrance.
    Her Majesty will then be escorted to the Royal coach. At the foot of the steps the Minister will present the Station Master, Mr B Gale.
    4.25 p.m. Equerry’s permission to depart will be sought, and Her Majesty will then depart for Sydney."
    Blue Mountains Advertiser, Thursday February 11th 1954
