Battern Down The Hatches
Hello' Everyone.
My uncle John in Maryborough, has told me that parts of Walkers Lmtd [EDI Rail] & the old wharf line has gone under in the Mary River Flood, is going to get dire this week when the water reaches the town from Gympie. In Gympie the town is cut in two but the railway still spans Deep Creek, i can not see why the MVHR could run a service with the RM 2000's over Deep Creek, they did that back in the 1993 flood.
I myself have been in currently in Warwick, the town is 'cut' in two, but still the railway can still go though the town until you get to Grantham which the line is according to my sources cut by depries. I will ask SDSR if they could try to ferry goods out and in. I had to save a young 5 year old [with rope tied to a tree] from walking into the swollen river, i grabbed him just before he stepped into the water, he will thank me becuase we do not want a loose of life in this climate of gloom.
Lastly my house in Brisbane & our property in Bell (which is close to be flooded but all that is stopping it is a moat that we built to divert water), but we will pray for a miricle. Here is a picture of the Bremer River Bridge near the IRW, the water is up to the first bar; it is going to get worse.....
Thank You Everyone, for showing support and I know this is not allowed at these forums; but please do donate to help those going through a hard-time here in Qld. That would mean the world to some lucky family. Our thought and pray's are with others
