Here are some photographs that form part of the story of our trip to Queensland in mid 2009. The first part of the story is here-

As mentioned, some early arrivals for a motor and machinery display had arrived at the Caboolture museum ready for the weekend. I took the opportunity to photograph some of them.
This last photo is of a Chamberlain tractor. They were an Australian made machine of the 1950's and ar now very much sought after. They are reputedly capable of over 50 m.p.h. and one became the only tractor ever to compete in the famous Redex Trials of the mid 1950's.
More touring of Queensland and New South Wales continues here-
