History: Mundaring Weir Pumping Station No. 2

These photos were taken June 2016

This was built for the Mundaring to Kalgoorlie pipeline and was in operation from 1902 to 1956. I could go more in-depth, but there's a fantastic official write up worth reading here.

The pipeline is a notable part of my childhood and I should make a video about it before it gets sunk. That project was announced in 2020.

I've added a few photos of Mundaring Weir from the day for good effect.
