447 Mile Quarry Trans-Australian Railway: '447 MILE QUARRY TRANS AUST RLY/23SE38/SA' several poor overlapping strikes & a largely very fine strike on the reverse on commercial cover to Sydney with provisional R label endorsed "447 Mile/TAR", minor blemishes. Rated RRRR. [Near the site of Watson. John Bell's similar but defective cover sold at the Prestige auction of 14.11.2014 for $1223]
East West Railway Construction Car: 'E W RLY CONSTRN [CAR]/15AP15/[SA]' very fine large-part strike on KGV 1d red x2. Rated RRRR. PO 17.10.1914; closed 3.12.1915. [Slightly more complete than John Booker's equally fine strike that sold at our auction of 1.3.2020 for $455]
East West Railway Head Camp (1): 'E W RY HEAD CAMP/10JU1915/STH AUSTRALIA' very fine large-part strike on KGV 1d red. Rated RRRR. PO 15.3.1915; closed 3.12.1915. [Several other examples seen are all light part-strikes. One of these sold at a 2004 postal auction for $525]
East West Railway TPO: 'E W RLY TPO/--PM 8SE23/[STH A]USTRALIA' very fine strike on 3d Kangaroo. Rated RRRRR: by far the superior of the two recorded strikes. PO c.1917; replaced by Trans-Australian Railway Pay Train c -.3.1924.
Express Railway: 'EXPRESS RL[Y UP]/23JA24/S.A' largely superb strike on KGV 1½d green (issued in 1924). Rated RRRRR. [This is an enigma. The Handbook states that the Express Railway closed 30.9.1917. However, this example from 7 years later, and another dated 25JL18, suggest the closing date is an error, or temporary only. As an alternative, it's possible the Express cds was placed into service on the Terowie Railway, which was the only TPO still operating in 1924. It closed 31.8.1928]
Kadina Railway: framed 'RAILWAY S[A]/AU3/80/K.A.R.' superb strike on 2d orange. Unrecorded in the Handbook: rated RRRRR. PO -.2.1880; closed 30.9.1917. [This marking predates the first cds listed in the Handbook by 4 months. Presumably 'KAR' = Kadina-Adelaide Railway?? See 'The Bulletin' of the BSAP March 2020]
