Australian Railway History | Nov-14
Mike Quirk heads the November issue of ARH with another fascinating article on Queensland Railways history, covering the real-life story of ‘Murder on the Bundaberg Mail’. Two passengers were murdered in a sleeping carriage and the conductor received a near-death bashing from which he never recovered. Smart police work and contributions by members of the public identified the murderer and brought him to justice.
Part 2 of Wayne Dempsey’s story is the main feature, this time covering his 31 years working at Sydney’s Terminal Station.
