A collection of ten vintage gelatin silver photographs each approximately 110 x 160 mm featuring the derailment of a South Australian 500 Class Mountain-type locomotive Number 506
The versos of all photographs are stamped 'The Advertiser . Adelaide . Krischock Photos copyright'. 506 'Sir George Murray' entered service in October 1926; it was withdrawn in June 1959 and scrapped three years later. We have been able to trace a couple of relatively minor derailments involving this locomotive but not this particular incident. The terrain and surrounding vegetation suggest to us the mallee country between Tailem Bend and the border; the clothing on the bystanders especially the two boys in their long woollen socks thick overcoats and school caps brings back childhood memories from the early 1950s. But the train wreck is the story and this series of photographs serves graphically to confirm the official SAR estimates of the total weight of the engine and tender at more than 220 tons. hardcover
