The 'Walker's Crossing' is an actual point along the
Walkers Crossing 4WD track between
Innamincka and
Birdsville. The crossing is named for Syd Walker who worked in SANTOS Field
Services Division at Moomba. He was responsible for the rebuilding of this crossing of the
Cooper Creek which suffered regular flood damage. Soon after the project was completed Syd had a massive heart attack and in his honour, the men of Field
Services decided to name the crossing after him and built a memorial at the crossing. Later an attempt was made to steal the
plaque so Field
Services removed it to Moomba for safe keeping.
