I live in Hamilton, and I've always wanted to visit here. I'm on leave from work at the moment, and I've earmarked this to do while I'm on leave... funny that you've just uploaded this now. I havent watched it yet, just paused it for now so i can comment, but I want to go see it before I watch the whole video!

There is several CBH sites in WA bigger than that site. The Co-operative Bulk Handling (CBH) facility in Merredin, Western Australia has a maximum storage capacity of 860,000 tonnes of wheat. The Merredin CBH facility includes the largest storage bin in the southern hemisphere, which can hold 600,000 tonnes of grain. The bin is 610 meters long and 59 meters high.

Yeah when I made the last video I did see pics of this place but I was only looking for port pics so I skipped over it. Not realising its size. Sometimes these things just don’t look the right scale. These vic sheds were still amazing. The murtoa shed was a sight to see
