BABY BOOM -

The railway from Wiluna to Mullewa was famous for its lack of promptness. One story concerns a lady and a conductor:

Lady: ‘When will we arrive? I must get to Wiluna as soon as possible, I’m pregnant.”

Conductor: ‘Madam I am surprised you boarded the train in that condition.”

Lady: “When I boarded the train I wasn’t in this condition!”

Perhaps this is just folklore but word has it that a camel train once beat the steam train on a journey between the two towns.
