Broken Hill to Peterborough on a 'VanGo' Road Trip

[@tedburnard841]

The radio site just before Olary looks like MacDonald’s Hill. Used to do the routine maintenance on the Balaklava - Broken Hill system back in the 70s and early 80s. It brought ABC TV from Adelaide to the Hill as well as picking up GTS4 (from Pt Pirie) at Nantabibbie and sending it on to the Hill to be aired as BKN7.

Mannhill was where I grew up in the 60's My family had the store there and I did my apprenticeship just down the track at Yunta, with Mr. A. E. Sherriff at the BP Oasis Garage. It is now the Ampol Truck Stop. Great times and a fantastic place to grow up in; so much history in the ared, but for most people, they would be unaware of it.

Seriously we travelled all over the out back never seen an animal of any sort or a town. Australia is bogus, there was one pub and that was it, we starved for three days, had one peanut butter sandwich each on the second day

I think we know who is bogus 😏

This is part of the main highway between Adelaide and Sydney. If you stick to routes like this, you will see a lot of towns, a lot of pubs and a lot of everything else. Remember though, Australia is vast and mostly desert so if you don't plan your trip, you could get permanently lost out there. The country isn't "bogus", its just bigger than most people realise.
