About this place

Bulli’s timber coal stage runs off the fenced colliery yard into the surf, a thin line of piles with the escarpment behind. It is the same Illawarra idea as Bellambi and Port Kembla, photographed as a coastline rather than as a locomotive. Tag coal, port and jetty. There are no rails sharp enough in this frame to force a rail tag.
