Going on a road trip tomorrow that will take me through Murrayville.
Where is all this stuff located? Is it easy to find. I want to talk to the owners before I take any photos, do I find them at Peers Motors?

Hi Tim, wycheproof is probably the closest I get before we swing off to the west and birchip.
I don't want to stir up anything with the south australian mob as we cross their border. The trip is offically a recce but may end up being a border raid.

Hi Ryan

Just a quick heads up mate, border guards posted on our side of the border.

Good hunting.

Cheers

Tony

Default Trip

We made it across the border with only a few holes in the rear of the car.
Murrayville was a bit of an eye opener. I counted the remains of 3 Matildas and 5 Grants. And a Staghound (?) turret.
I can see why stuff has gone missing over the years, as it's right next to the highway.
I spoke to one of the Peers who didn't know who actually owned it all but knew it wasn't for sale. It was all there for people to look at and enjoy. Go figure.
