G'day,
We were at Lake Goldsmith last weekend, highly recommended. A living breathing museum, that would put anything they did at the old uni student managed State run Spotswood pumping station totally in the shade. Not pretty static displays, the stuff there does the work it was designed to do, totally fascinating, a group of highly talented hobbyists.
Not just big, it's enormous, no way you could see the whole place in one visit.....

Not a great galley there, here's a few videos from Auntie......
Thousands roll in for 100th Lake Goldsmith steam rally - ABC Ballarat - Australian Broadcasting Corporation
We watched a steam driven sawmill for at least half an hour, bloody amazing, no OH&S then - or now. Highly recommended, the club people do this twice a year and with differing themes.
cheers,
Bob
