  Troops at San Antonio camp healthier than those elsewhere -- NYT, June 18, 1911: query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?res=9E03E2D71031E2...

• Early Aviation said:

  Robert F. Collier Wright B biplane rented to US Army for $1 a month. Aircraft arrived San Antonio February 21, 1911

• Ryan (LOC P&P) said:

  Thanks for this information Early Aviation. We'll add some of it to the record the next time we update.

• Elmore Dodge said:

  On May 10, 1911, Lt. George Kelly was killed in the crash of a Wright B at Ft. Sam Houston. This was the first death associated with U.S. military air flight. tshaonline.org/handbook/online/articles/qbk01

  Well the cars apparently mean it can't be before 1959. And the steam train means it can't be later than 1970. There is a guy with a flag. I will examine the cars more closely.

• jrg_from_oz said:

  The CCC logo on the engine shows it as belonging to the Corrimal Coal and Coke Co., which existed under that name between 1937 and 1964.

• Michelle Nichols said:

  Note the VW far left and the business enblazoned on the ute. VWs introduced in 1953 in Melbourne and NSW 1954. Local manufacturing began 1960. The electrical appliance store of Lindsay & Brown still operating today at Figtree.

• Mich said:

  I had a look for the location on Google earth. Its not apparent. There is a guy at railpage australia who would know. My best guess would be about 1960-61.

• Kent Broadhead said:

  I think this is a former crossing of the Princes Hwy at Tarrawanna Rd Corrimal. Looking south with the former Streets Ice Cream Factory the warehouse to the right. Tarrawanna Scrap Metal sign makes sense. FB/EK Holdens suggest 1960/61 maps.google.com.au/maps?q=corrimal+nsw&ll=-34.374955,...
