Information

The barge is now high and dry beside the track just half a kilometre south from where it ferried supplies across the flooded Cooper Creek. This barge was presented to settlers north of Cooper Creek by Dalgety and company LTD. in 1949 to ferry people, supplies and mail across flood water and to assist drivers with the crossing of cattle on route to the Adelaide market.
