  Nature as novelty. Bring the animal out for the photo-op, everybody smiles, then put the beast back into its cage. How civilized we are.

  I thought what did the elephant do next? By clicking on the ‘find more detailed information…’ my question was answered.
  Thank you so much for sharing.

  So this was life without cable TV, cell phones and internet
  If any one has a tea party with an elephant give me a year and I will try to make it.

  I hope that records.nsw has this captioned correctly. My memory is of something much smaller and less ornate. It could have been another to have space excised during its lifetime, but the whole station building wasn't large or grand. I had 'dinner' there once in the 1980s, towards the end of North Coast Mail: classic takeaway pie and coffee. Roderick B Smith Rail News Victoria Editor
