I spent the first half of my childhood in a small wheat town in northern Victoria and that shot is deeply nostalgic. In those days the wheat trains would have a long rake of old fashioned four wheel wagons stretched out behind one of the smaller diesel engines that was used on the lightly built branch lines. A couple of times a day the rail motor would pass through on the way to the nearest regional city (Bendigo) where you could catch a passenger train into Melbourne. Most of those branch lines are now disused for most of the year, opening only for the wheat harvest. The stations have either been bulldozed or left to fall down and the silos are all that is left.
