Re: Photos of the 109 extension

Great pics Malcolm and a good record of the works. Box Hill was my home
town and so it is all familiar territory, however, don't get there much
these days.

Wandered up to Box Hill today to see how the extension is going. No
rails laid but the track bed from Elgar Rd to Market St is being
graded.

This is the new end of the line, just past Market St.

The new track is being laid on the north side of the centre
plantation, sparing the white horse.

View from Nelson Rd and Whitehorse Rd cnr looking east towards the new
terminus.
