    Steam Engine - Wirrabara, Australia
    Steam Engine - Wirrabara, Australia
    This Steam Engine was used for cutting wood.
    Albert Henry Sloan and his brother, Gordon
    Stanley Sloan,(Gordon was 12 years old at the
    time), drove this with a team of horses on very
    dangerous trips to Port Pirie. Albert drove the
    team and Gordon was the brakeman. It was found
    later and restored to serve as a monument in
    Wirrabara, South Australia honoring the pioneers.
    The monument plaque reads: A tribute to the
    fortitude and courage of the pioneer settlers of
    the district. 1974.
