I have beers with a couple that worked at the Offices of the Snowy during its construction, they commuted every morning from Cooma.
The actual company "Snowy Mountains Scheme" did a whole lot more than just that one job...

Lots of history there, The Power Wagon in that photo is the one and same that i'm restoring . I scored that commonwealth plate sequence as a Custom plate (why I don't want this on club rego) . Ive spoken to the buyer that drove it home to Bega from the Snowy Auction.
drove it out of the shed for the first time a few days ago so I could stand back and check alignment of tub vs cab .
not sure how the photos will copy across from facebook. If they don't work let me know and I'll upload them.
Ive been all over snowy photos and got a book on building the snowy, In photos LandRovers outnumber Toyotas about 50 to 1 . Toyotas only appeared very late on the scene & hardly et a mention in the book.
Rare photo of Toyotas on the scheme, Its late because everything is painted yellow for safety
better photo of the OP image.
Text with photo reads " A hold-up on the road through Rennix Gap, below Mt Koscsiuszko - 1953"
