We reached Charleville late in the day without whacking a 'roo, though we saw a heap. We crossed the Warrego River which back in early March flooded the town
|
|
|
|
We booked into the Cobb and Co, caravan park which was 99.9% full. During the flood the waters were up to the windows.

|
After settling in, we stoked up the keg with some Gidgee timber that we had picked up along the road.

Finally it was time to head home, and I was to catch the train from Charleville to Brisbane.

The Westlander at Charleville Station - which was to be my 'home' for the next 17 hours. Train leaves Charleville at 6.30pm and arrives Brisbane 11.30am next day.

My berth on the Westlander. I found the bed was a bit short on one end and far too short both sides.
