World War 2 Tank Traps

WW2 Tank Traps The Brisbane Line

The Great Dividing Range runs along the east coast of Australia and during WW2 tanks traps placed in a narrow pass on the only all-weather road between Brisbane and the southern States of Australia. This was part of a series of defence structures known as the Brisbane Line. This would be Australia’s second line of defence during WW2.

Tenterfield WW2 Tank Traps & Captain Thunderbolts Hideout

Explore and experience history in Tenterfield NSW Australia. The World War 2 Tank Traps at Tenterfield were a part of the claimed Brisbane Line which was supposedly been a line of last defence in Australia for the invasion by the Japanese. Tank Traps were to slow down tanks and expose their soft underbelly for attack.

Captain Thunderbolts Hideout is a maze of natural rock formations that allowed for the famous bushranger to hide with his horses and keep lookout to escape capture by the authorities in the 1800's.

Its easy to see that the Aboriginal people would have used the space for 1000's of years too.

Tenterfield has so much history with both these places within 1km of each other and only about 10 minutes drive from the centre of Tenterfield.

Australia's Day Of National Shame... Part Eighteen. The (Vital Melbourne To) Brisbane Line.

Darwin 1942, February 19th...
Those who do not know their History are Doomed, to repeat their History...
The Brisbane Line was the BI-PARTISAN Policy of both the Menzies' & Faddens' Governments, as well as the Laborite Hero John Curtin...
The Aboriginals, Lepers, & Missionaries on Islands off the Coast of Darwin did more to effectively protect Australia from Japanese Attack, than the rest of the British Empire, combined, actually achieved, when it really mattered...
Because, The Brisbane Line was in force, for at least 4 months before & 2 months after, the 1st Japanese Bombing Of Darwin...
In this one, I do employ the Old Colonial Vernacular Accent, to channel both John Curtin & Eddie Ward...; I was born in 1961, my Dad was 52 when I was born, so I KNOW how Australian Men spoke in the 1930s & '40s...

Because, I grew up in a Timewarp...; back when all this shit still mattered, to the Grownups...
I can't reply to, nor post, Comments on the Threads, but I do enjoy reading those which G+ allows to appear, & I can still reply to PMs addressed to my Thread...

Mel Oliver - The Brisbane Line

Our favourite agricultural machinery collector Mel Oliver is back this time with something not directly related to 6AD but could have had some impact on 6AD - the Brisbane Line. And if you doubt it ever existed you haven't heard Mel's story.

40ft Shipping Containers Transformed Into Amazing Off-Grid Family Home

This amazing small home has been built using two 40ft high cube shipping containers, slightly of-set from one another to create a stunning, off-the-grid family home.
