    Thanks Rob, this was really interesting 😊 I love seeing the wild that’s still around here. There’s a great doggo park that we often visit, up that end by the Holmview Rd level crossing. And I appreciate you calling the masked lapwing by their correct name!

    It's hard to believe that Beenleigh has managed to function effectively all these years without those runoffs having an official name. Rob to the rescue! First Creek, Second Creek and Third Creek.

    Mate in the mid 80's my father started a business at the industrial park out near the brewery. Where the old space ship servo was .We moved into and old house on a property that boarderd the back of the estate off Octal St. It was called the Halfway creek homestead . It was old, had gas lines with mantles sticking out the wall, big enamal gas stove and you could get to it through Ormeau. The creek run through the property and I explored it all the way to the hwy behind the old pelerman gardens nursery. There where some bigger pools which had platypus in them . Your last creek was knowen to us as Townsends. We would climb down the old wooden bridge that crossed the Albert west of the Hwy at the rum distillary, were the rail bridge is now and catch bull sharks. There were a few creeks on the right as you head up stream from the bridge and two of them we knew as Bullock Ck and Hill Ck . These names came from a school mates dad that took us up there in his boat . Might help .

    Awesome video as per usual Rob. Trip down memory lane. If I may add a couple of things, the cattle yards were built circa 1980 due to Logan River road being raised. That cattle track was the original Holmview road. Holmview road always turned left and went about 100 metres to dead end. Dad's dairy farm was river side of road Mr and Mrs Gadsby house were only 2 places until 1974. Gadsbys house is still there. The Holmview station as such was nothing more than a siding and would stop so dad could load the cream cans in the trains goods van to go to Paul's at South Brisbane. And for us kids to go to and from school in Beenleigh. The creek there is continually fed by spring water somewhere behind Teys. The old townsfolk would in dry times carry kerosene tins on a yoke to get water. The reservoir what is now Zander road was also used for the town's water supply in more modern times. That creek according to my late dad, the indigenous peoples of Beenleigh would put their dead people wrapped in ti-tree bark and tie them up in the trees. Where the netball courts are there used to be a Bora Ring. Courts were built circa 80's, so indigenous heritage is lost. Where the BMX track and football oval is was Bill Hammel's farm, mainly potatos. Thosbournes had a drink factory on George st. Right hand side heading out of town. Keep up the great work

    The usual name is just a 'loading ramp', for either cattle or sheep. Most playing fields were low lying areas and these were a farm back in the 60s then was levelled off and part of the river over flow and dams became if I recall correctly land fill, after remediation became playing fields

    Some memories from this. I lived in Sunrise St for a couple of years. Soon after I moved in, there was a stench like an open sewer. I was surprised to find it was the Teys Brothers abbatoir, just over the hill.
    Where the tip is, was a water tower, behind which was a dirt track that led to Waterford Rd, near where Logan Village is now.
    Doug Larson Park, better known as the duck park, was named after a foreman in Albert Shire Council. He apparently organised all the kids playground stuff that was so popular.
    Last time I went past, I didn't stop to look, so I wonder if that's all still there? I had been riding for seven hours, with another hour to go, so I was more intent on filling up at PK's, by the lights that used to be a mini roundabout. lol

      Doug Larson was a long time employee for Albert Shire Council, as far as I am aware he 'always' worked for council. The Larsons lived along York St, between Kokoda St and Tobruk St. My older brother was and still is best friends since about 2nd grade with Dougs youngest son, Alan Larson. The area where the park named after him and the nearby playing fields was all a swampy former sand mining site. Doug was instrumental in the area being transformed from what it was to what it is now, a great many people sentenced to community service by the courts did their community service at the park/bmx track and Doug was the one who supervised them all.

    I loved this video as much as and more than you enjoyed making it Rob. Waterways hold so much history. These days I suppose we are far more aware of the importance of clean creeks but I remember as a kid even in Toowong so close to the city, watching mums washing machine water enter the gutter and just under the street and into the creek. So normal. Thank you Clem Jones for the sewage treatment across Brisbane. I digress, I thought of Walkabout Creek too as a name but I reckon the Aboriginal name would be fantastic. In Sydney there are people working on a map which is gathering all findable Aboriginal names from various sources and filling this map in with the first names. A big project but so good. Oh and it would have been a tortoise because it had feet I'm sure for life in a rocky creek. ❤

    The original tribal ppl didn’t have names for things as we do in English. The language is a description of what is there or what takes place there. This is a major misconception .

      @@walkaboutwithrob this was explained to me at the Aboriginal embassy around 2012 by the main leader running it . He lives close by on the island in the Aboriginal camps , speaks the language of His mob the Gorenpul, and his family are original bloodline and go back hundreds of years. There are no references on line for this as its information that the ppl tell you directly and that’s how the culture works . But if you understand the meanings of some of the places around Brisbane you’ll see they are a description . For example bin kin ba - turtle there . Nyndurooplily - leaches/ sitting down place. Yungungarri - dugon place (Stradbroke ) Ningy - oysters (bribe island)

    re rails and flood. see history NT
    The chosen route for the Central Australian Railway was heavily influenced by the need for water for steam locomotives. Since time immemorial, Aboriginal people had followed a chain of artesian springs and waterholes to sustain them when carrying ochre from the Far North of South Australia to trading places in the south. The explorer John McDouall Stuart followed a similar route during several expeditions between 1858 and 1862.[41] The route taken by the Overland Telegraph ten years later, to which Stuart is believed to have given attention during his travels, was very similar. When the railway route was surveyed, it was hardly surprising that it followed the reliable sources of water.[42]: 52  And as a consequence, the railway was intermittently subject to floods on a grand scale that washed away bridges, embankments and other earthworks. A selection during 50 years is in this table:

    they ripped outconcrete around stones corner.. co-incidental to me pointing out diff between that and my local.. easy to ask council.. they're planting millions of trees ie green Libs, my local even puts in spikey native bushes for fairy wrens after flood flattened ones on brook bank..and I asked them, plus a few lemon myrtle, which is great cause only source I knew was mainstreet nimbin. but I lobby with a little creation or two especially after I notice works done like local loos in park. I highly recommend it BCC councillors are good people I find.
