The siding to the right leads to the BP Fuel Depot. The siding to the left is to a hard standing area and is the remaining track from the steam locomotive depot track network. These sidings connect to the Mildura yard by a track running parallel to the Yelta branch line at right. 27-7-2002. Photo: Bruce McLean
