I’ve got an idea where it may be, Batsy, but will wait in case someone who has been there, puts their hand up.

I haven't been there. We were fossicking for storolites east of Mt Isa in 1984 and were told of an old tunnel we could have used to get back onto the main road. Chose not to though.

Well Mikee5 you got the cigar after all. Yes the Wee MacGregor Tram Tunnel, a 2' gauge rail used to carry ore from the Wee MacGregor mine through Hightville to Ballara where it was reloaded onto the standard 3'6" gauge line to the smelter. Very harsh but dramatic country. Those early pioneers did it TOUGH .
Well done.
