Narrikup - about 20km south of Mount Barker. Small hamlet in farming area.

Kendenup-Mortigallup - The station is based in the small farming town of Kendenup, about 17km north of Mount Barker.

Tenterden is a small collection of buildings about 85km north of Albany. I saw this driving out of the roadhouse as I headed north. On my way back I found it outside a wreckers yard.

LA105 (Albany) - my camera takes really good photos of my FRS antenna!

LK202 (Katanning) - seen in Cranbrook.

PHOTO BELOW EDITED - thanks Tom!
LA203 (Albany) - yeah I know it's blurry. If you don't like it, before you complain, come down here and do a better job yourself.

Top shots Wes.

Katanning must have a couple of traffic cars then.

Thanks Tom. Yep - I would say that they do. Katanning is a big town.

From memory I think they have 2 marked and one unmarked. The unmarked is based in Narrogin and is shared between towns to keep the citizens on their toes so to speak. Also get multinovas from Perth down here every fortnight

Nice Pics btw.

With all my trips to albany have been lucky to never see the boys. Always saw the camera set up at the 60 zone near the roadhouse as you enter Mt Barker though. 5 trips in a row it was there.

You're very lucky then bomber. I have seen them years ago, before speed cameras, hiding in the trees outside the pool.

From the sounds of it there are very few LTs in the Plantagenet Shire (maybe only one in Mount Barker VFRS), the primary appliances being 2.4Rs, 2.4Bs and 3.4s.

Methinks Kendenup has a couple of 2.4s. (Will make enquiries.

)

Fair bit of bush around this area, and farmland. As a result they need the bulk water.

I thought Lake Grace has the VE SV6?

Hmmm.... it could have been one of the LA cars. I may have been mistaken but I know for sure that I did see the LG car out and about.
