Port Hedland and Redmont Camp

 Some photos from my last trip to Pt Hedland and Redmont...

My flight from Perth to Pt Hedland

Perth's Northern Beaches

Derailed train carriages left at the side of the track

Bits of a derailed train at the side of the track

More derailed train....

Working alongside a live rail line

The Track Protection Officer and Engineer doing measurements on site

An iron ore train heading into Pt Hedland

Most of the rivers are drying up now - no more river crossings anymore

My office block at sunset

The pool is good for a swim after a hot day!

Some of the bedrooms (called Dongas)

My Donga is on the right

My room is at the far end of the front block

A goanna that lives at the camp

Bore-dipping to see how much water is in the bore
