Some Car Club Events


We have had a few trips out with the car club recently, in between the COVID lockdowns.

In October it was to visit the small town of Ben Lomond which is about 45 minutes drive north from us.
It was once was on the railway line that now stops at Armidale. 
 
There is some talk of turning the old line into a rail trail for walkers and cyclists. But it seems to be a bit like vegemite, people either love the idea or hate it!

We were given a talk about the history of the town and the railway.


 Its the highest station in Australia.

 

Then it was a BBQ lunch at the new fire shed.

Then in July it was a trip to Walcha to see Apsley Falls in flood.
