Barren Jack Worksite An Amazing 2ft Gauge Line
A Yass correspondent describes the Goondah offshoot railway as a novelty with a 2ft gauge and steep grades. The flying fox transport system carries men up the gorge to the wall site where foundations for a granite cement wall between two mountains are laid. About 300 men work on the project, which is expected to finish in four years and create a vast water reservoir with a lake rivaling Sydney Harbour.

Trams Disrupt Fire Brigade Telephones in Sydney
In Castlereagh Street Sydney the Metropolitan Fire Brigade moves its watchroom to a billiard room to avoid tram noise. An elevated switchboard will be installed and new drop shutters imported. The watchroom becomes a library and rest room for personnel. Fire calls will be handled via central exchange with improved telephonic procedures. New chimney sweeping rules under the Local Government Act aim to reduce blazes and nuisance.
