Not quite 2UE, but it is 3something.

Been around for nearly 90 years; had a few changes to callsign and transmitter location, but has had present callsign & location for quite a while now.

Not Dimboola.

But you're in the right area of the state, sort of close-ish.

Henty highway Doon, maybe 3wm., though it looks much more like the St Arnaud - Wycheproof road, just done remember a tower.

Sarge has it.

Heading north Henty hwy, Dooen (past the pub).

3WM tower on left. Grain handling facility on right is Viterra - Horsham, they are on the corner of Freight Terminal rd which leads to the Wimmera Inter Modal Freight Terminal - Horsham.

Just beyond the silos is the turn-off to St Arnaud (Wimmera hwy.)

I had used swishy's clue, which I interpreted as 3LK (Lubeck). For years the station was 3DB/3LK. IIRC there is another transmitter on the hill at Diapur.
Modern storages have gone back to bunker, so lots of locations have a mixture of 1930s tall concrete, 1950s round squat metal (Behlen), then rectangular sheds, and now tarpaulined bunkers.
I had discounted Murtoa, Warracknabeal and Nhill.
I had checked Dooen, and got the freight terminal, but not the silos.

OK, I am playing from a different pack of cards (you knew that)..... so maybe not too many of us have driven or steamed over this one... I have, my photo, about 6 years ago. Love the bridge and the story.


I will add another pic if you struggle....

Going by the narrow Rail Gauge, You're in Queensland somewhere (I think)..

Roderick will nail this I reckon...

Just top of head: Dickabram Bridge, Monto line (Qld)
This isn't the usual angle.
I'll check after posting.
Roderick
After checking:
It is Dickabram Bridge, but on the now-closed Kingaroy line, not the Monto line (also closed in full or in part).
I don't have a photo of the bridge in my collection.
