Information

At the junction of this emergency exit road to Willow Springs Homestead is this old Malcolm/Moore Grader that was powered by a Fordson Petrol/Kerosene Motor. This grader was the second motorised grader used by the Hawker District Council and purchased in the 1940's.

The grader was purchased by the Reynold's family in the 1960's and had its second motor installed in 1973, where it was used extensively on Willow Springs Station until 1982. Kevin Reynolds ( Brendan's Father ) along with volunteers used the grader to construct the Golf Course in Blinman in the late 1960's.
