JOHN'S MOLONG BLOG: 24 November 2017 | What happened on this day in the Molong of yesteryear? | And your guide to the weather and what's happening locally. From Molong on 24 November 1890 The Australian Town and Country Journal reported: "The conjested state of goods traffic at the local railway station still continues, to the great inconvenience of many. About 15 large wool teams are camped within a mile or two of town. Some have been so for more than a week, and cannot get unloaded, due to the inaability of the Railway Department to take delivery of the wool. The insufficiency of trucks is now as monotonous as wet weather was during the last winter season."
