Western Australia Part two

I went back to Western Australia in 1980 and the job at Bell Bros this time was on a roading section near De Gray river which incorporated the approcaches to a new bridge. On this job I was in 85 ton dump trucks and a bit of time on a couple of big loaders.

After this job it was off to the Leslie Salt job building new salt evaporation ponds. On this job I was mainly on an elevator scraper which was one of several on site that we also had at the Wallal Downs road job with Bell Bros a year or so earlier.
