  Outside the NSW Con in June 1934. But why?! GoogleMapsStreetView

  Too easy with a Trove search for "snow plough kosciusko". Several illustrated articles (with the Con in the background) for a new vehicle which could get passengers and goods up to the chalet in mid-winter. Owned by the NSW Tourist Bureau. trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/81696623 trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/64286335 The two gentlemen are likely to be the Hon F.A. Chaffey, Chief Secretary, and Mr H.J. Lamble, Director of NSW Tourist Bureau

  Not sure if that is Frank Augustus Chaffey, aged 44, on the right? adb.anu.edu.au/biography/chaffey-frank-augustus-5543

  beachcomber australia Thank you for those links and great spotting beachcomber! I think you're right, it does look like the man to the right is Frank Chaffey. See also: www.flickr.com/photos/anmm_thecommons/7834527766/in/photo... www.flickr.com/photos/anmm_thecommons/7834533548/in/photo...

  Amused to see the truck is called "WALTER" - I googled it and absolutely astonished to find a "c. 1935" Walter Snow Fighter in a company contemporary promotional movie on YouTube!! See this machine in action - youtu.be/OW8iCvnKWXg, and Part 2 - youtu.be/CyFxkVefcsE
