Nice pics Phil, especially like the front shot of the Canberra with the flag detail.

I've stopped by Wagga gates a few times to take pics and have noticed in recent years an increase in activity around these displays. There is appears to be more
interest in keeping them in as good a condition as possible. Another interesting note, I've never seen any serious graffiti or tags on them. Thats not just because they are close to the front door, but I believe its because of the local respect.

Funny story, one silly warm summers day, a mate of mine reversed his F250 up to the meat box, wanted a shot that looked like he was towing it away. Next thing he knew there were blue boys everywhere, some even seemed scary.
