Poem by Andrew Barton Paterson


Opening of the Railway Line


The opening of the railway line... 
The Governor and all, 
With flags and banners down the street, 
A banquet and a ball, 
Hark to them at the station now ! 
They’re raising cheer on cheer, 
The man who brought the railway through, 
Our friend the engineer.
