On my return trip to Melbourne from Sydney I stopped at Gundagai in New South Wales (NSW) which is a small town 4 hours from Sydney. It is popular with writers as it is a typical Australian country town. I visited the Museum Railway Station and the delightful lady who manages it allowed me to film the train station with my drone. She said quite a few people film it with drones although sometimes they get it stuck in the trees. I took extra care and did my best to capture the beauty of this historical station, train track and town. I was told by someone there that the original town was located on the grass plains however 80-100 people died on the night of 24th June 1852 due to a flash flood. It was Australia's deadliest flood. They then moved the town to higher ground around the grass flood plains. See link below for more information.

Flood History:
In the middle of the night on 24 June 1852 a catastrophic flood swept through the New South Wales town of Gundagai.
The water rose quickly to become a raging torrent that swept whole buildings away and left people clinging for their lives in trees.
Only three buildings were left standing when the water receded. Between 80 and 100 people died, and the disaster remains the deadliest flood in Australia’s recorded history.
