Out and about in Moonee Valley - just another day in the suburbs. Wednesday, August 21, 2013. A nice solid looking steel box along the railway line in Moonee Ponds. It was manufactured by AR and Co, Hebburn, England. Can it have been in place since the line was electrified in 1918? Still in use if the padlock is anything to go by. Posted by Lenore Frost.
