Remains of a part privately erected telephone line. One insulated wire and earth return creates the circuit between the exchange and the phone. Mouse over to see the note. Click on photo to enlarge. This technology was used to provide telephone service to remote places in the days of manual (magneto) telephone exchanges.
This is just North of the Moomba - Sydney pipeline ROW near 'The Cottage' site in an area South West of Cobar NSW.

The above ground access to the ethane pipeline at The Cottage site. The 8 inch ethane pipe was provided in the 1990s.
I first found out about the ethane pipeline when pegging a site for a railways radio hut at the location below. I met two men who were marking the route for the pipe. Their route would have gone right under the middle of the optimal location for the hut. I relocated the hut and saved both organisations a huge headache later. We went through their maps and found there were no other conflicts.
