From Coyyan's Notebook Herberton Connection
In Coyyan's Notebook the Herberton work and pioneer routes are chronicled. It recalls Downey and Stone Island lore, early road surveys from Cairns to Herberton, and the 1890s push to blaze the Mulgrave and Atherton ranges. The piece notes camp life, laborers, and the push for railway expansion to link Cairns with Inland settlements.
