Heading up the Highway to Rockhampton, stopped for morning tea at The Travellers Rest Cafe in Gin Gin, then lunch & re-fuel at Benarby. Booked into Southside Holiday Village (Top Tourist). Very nice park with good amenities, as long as you don't mind trains passing by all day & night. It didn't worry us, even though they are only 35 meters away. Visited the local information Centre, which is on the Tropic Of Capricorn.
July 1st. Started sightseeing by visiting the Arthur Park Railway Station Museum, dedicated mostly to the "SteamTrams". They provided the transport system for the City of Rockhampton in the early days. I had a ride on a still working and enjoyed looking at all the other Railway Memoriabilia. I was not aware that Steam Trams even existed. A very interesting place to visit.
