1st Stop Information
Site tips and helpful tools

Goldies...what are they, and how can I use them?

marcmandy is glad you asked! He's got some exciting info for you:

We have some new and modified Goldies that should prove useful in wiki design!
They have been made larger for better visibility and, in the case of the divider lines, thickened for the same reason.
Additionally there are some transparent spacers to help shift text into different positions on the line.
None of the old bullets or lines have been removed from the collection.
To see the whole collection, go to [ Main: The Entire Goldie Collection ].

PS-Instructions on how to use Goldies
12 Follow these easy instructions:

12 Simply type two colons : : followed by the required term and end with two colons.

12 There should be no spaces anywhere.

For instance 12 with 2 colons on each side would produce 12

And something new *Invisible_Spacers*:
There is a spacer called "dividerblank." It is 50 pixels wide. You can not see it, but it will indent lines or separate items on a page. The 4 new ones are 32, 64, 96, and 128 pixels wide
128 pixels is the length of the standard page dividers seen above this. 64 pixels is half of that and 32 pixels is half of that length
ZZW32 = 32 pixel long line (ZZW32)ZZW64 = 64 pixel long line (ZZW64)ZZW128 = 128 pixel long line (ZZW128)

::dividerblank32:: This is a test ! using dividerblank32 following one = sign


* This is a test using the original dividerblank following one = sign


dividerblank64 This is a test using dividerblank64 following one = sign


dividerblank96 So is this using dividerblank96 following one = sign


dividerblank128 and lastly, using dividerblank128 following one = sign


dividerblank128dividerblank128 and one more example using dividerblank128 twice next to each other.dividerblank64and then sticking a 64pxl one before this sentence.

Australia's Amazing Attributes
Brought to you by: restivo46

(unknown photo)

Bob the Railway Dog (also known as "Terowie Bob") is part of South Australian Railways folklore. He travelled the South Australian Railways system in the latter part of the 19th century, and was known widely to railwaymen of the day.

Bob first experienced the railway life when, as a young dog, he took a fancy to the workers building the railway near Strathalbyn and followed some of the navvies to the line. He was brought back to his owner, the publican of the Macclesfield Hotel, two or three times before finally disappearing. He was about nine months old at the time.

His true railway career appears to have commenced not long after being consigned from Adelaide, along with fifty other dogs, to Quorn, to be used to exterminate rabbits near Carrieton. Bob was, it was believed, picked up as a stray in Adelaide. He was swapped (though it has been suggested he "broke pack") for another dog, obtained as a stray from the police in Port Augusta by William Seth Ferry, then working as a special guard at Petersburg as Peterborough was then known. Ferry "registered him right away" and is recorded as noting he acquired Bob on 24 September 1884.

Eventually William Ferry, a nephew of Seth Ferry, the noted horse trainer, was promoted to Petersburg Assistant Station Master in February 1885, by which time Bob had become accustomed to train travel.

Bob was known to venture to and from Petersburg often sitting in the front of the coal space in the locomotive tender, travelling many thousands of miles. According to the Petersburg Times[6] "His favourite place on a Yankee engine; the big whistle and belching smokestack seem(ed) to have an irresistible attraction for him...he lived on the fat of the land, and was not particular from whom he accepted his dinner".

Bob did not like suburban engines because of their cramped cabs, but was known to clear out third class compartments for his sole use by "vigorously barking at all stations, usually succeeding in convincing intending passengers that the coach had been reserved of his special benefit". "His bark was robust and often caused strangers to believe that he was being aggressive when he really intended to be friendly." He had no master, but was befriended and enabled by the engineers (for whom he seemed to have a special affinity) and trainmen, and permitted to "ride for free, like a politician."

Some sources suggest that Bob's travels took him to all mainland states of Australia, being seen as far afield as Oodnadatta, Queensland, and even Western Australia (given there was no railway connection at the time, this is unlikely). However, he was noted as having "several river trips up the Murray and around the coast". He was present at the opening of the railway between Petersburg and Broken Hill, as a "distinguished guest at the Melbourne Exhibition in 1881". Given that he was not acquired by Ferry until 1884, it is not clear if this was indeed "Bob" (although the source may have confused the 1880 event with the 1888 Melbourne Centennial Exhibition which was held in the building constructed for the 1880 event).

During one of his visits to Port Augusta, Bob is said to have caught a steamship to Port Pirie after apparently confusing the ship's whistle with that of a locomotive.

Bob was provided with a collar bought by a commercial traveller who had taken a fancy to him after he had been "dognapped" by a farmer. In addition to two tags, two brass plates were rivetted to the collar itself. They were inscribed with:

Stop me not, but let me jog, For I am Bob, the drivers dog

and;

Presented by McLean Bros & Ricc

It was reported that the brass plate was made by "a brass worker in the service". It has been suggested that the couplet was written by Ferry and his nephew.

Parker also notes that the railwaymen in Terowie had always maintained his registration after Ferry left (Ferry took up a role as Assistant Stationmaster with the WA Land Company at Mt Barker WA in 1889); he notes that "somebody hid him at Alberton, so I should not get him. I never saw him again after that".

Bob is remembered today by railway workers and historians alike. His collar is on display in the National Railway Museum, Port Adelaide, along with photographs and other artifacts.

In 2009, the local community of Peterborough, as Petersburg is now known, raised funds for a statue of Bob. This was unveiled in November, and it is at the eastern end of Main Street.

Bob is commemorated in Terowie via a series of information boards, labelled "Bob the Railway Dog Trail", at various points of interest in the town.

We have a winner for the Best Original Poem contest! This beautifully haunting entry was submitted by ladyvic:


Rainbows *and* Ribbons

As the night draws near, my love, my friend
We dare to speak about seeing the end
They say to call, to say goodbye
But how can we talk because we cry
Your time has come, it was too soon
I'll always love you to the moon
I cannot fathom to talk no more
My heart is breaking, my eyes are sore
You breathe so deeply for your last breath
We know the time is near for your death
Think of Rainbows and Ribbons in the air
Go to the land that is so fair
Until we meet again forevermore
When death knocks at the door
I'll cherish those memories forever shared
I just want you to know, I always cared.

Congratulations to ladyvic!
