There are lots of great photos in that album.
The Snowy is being given an increased environmental flow.
I wonder if that will help flush some of the silting which prevents vessel from reaching Orbost?

There are lots of other threads on the paddlesteamer in Paddleducks.
The three long ones are attached to:

www.paddleducks.co.uk/smf/index.php?topic=3459.msg18624#msg18624 (which includes my photos of the commissioning ceremonies).

I haven't got back there yet, either by car or with my boat.  Gippsland is remote from my normal haunts, and I have had only one season deployed there.
