Today’s historic pic: Overland sleeper Tawarri in the consist of ‘The Sunraysia’ from Mildura at Spencer Street station, Melbourne , October 19 1987. The Sunraysia was a short-lived Mildura to Melbourne daylight train that used the Vinelander carriage set, hence the sleeping car.

Affixed some kayak mounts to the car by myself so I’d recommend avoiding the Sunraysia Highway between 10am and 2pm Monday. Just a tip.

An important omission by the Sunraysia Daily and the Member for Mallee that there was a Multi-party Parliamentary Panel that was involved in the merit based decision making process.
This is what might be confusing for the Member for Mallee more used to colour coded spreadsheets.

Enjoy. As a child I'd refuse to eat the no name brand Sultanas. Insisting Sunraysia Sultanas tasted better. One Holiday whilst in Mildura my parents took me to the Sunraysia packaging factory for a tour. Devastated I watched as the Sunraysia packaging was replaced with no brand.

No idea about water, but I wouldn't be surprised if the Riverina and Sunraysia were having trouble trucking fruit.

Here's a Depression-era recipe for mock fish from the Sunraysia Daily in 1934 per Trove: trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/ar... The word 'mock' was once so commonly used for fakey food that everyone knew what Lewis Carroll was doing creating his character, the Mock Turtle, from mock turtle soup!

This must have been a very difficult decision for the Lanyon Family to make. I can’t imagine that any media business is finding the new media order easy going. As a former Sunraysia Daily editor I wish the very best for the future for these papers.

Since withdrawal of The Sunraysia in 1990, then its sister train, the overnight "Vinelander" in 1993, no regular passenger trains have run north of Maryborough on the Mildura line. Recent conversion of the Mildura line to standard gauge means its less likely to see a return of passenger trains.

Time to get back on the finance horse.
First official day back from leave is tomorrow, but my first hit out is with Jane Goldsmith for Nine's Late News later this evening.
Let's see if I can remember how to do this...
