This is the last post in this series on the Dalby Railway Station. When I was a child, Dalby was almost exclusively a farming community with some light manufacturing and food processing (Dairy, flour mill etc.). The town now also supports a more diversified set of industries including – coal mining, coal seam gas, electricity generation, bio-fuel production, and engineering/services to support these industries. Things change – makes my memories of the district from 1960 to 1980 seem like pioneer days (from a European perspective anyhow). Things will change again – when the gas runs out.
