We make our first visit for 2012 to the site of an early 20th Century Canecutter's Social Club -- widely known as an illegal "Casino". The original building was built in the late 19th Century for the large numbers of migrant canecutters employed on the North Queensland canefields. It burnt down early on the morning of January 1st, 1928 -- but was quickly rebuilt and continued to operate as "The Casino". Some great finds on this short hunt, including a Silver Florin and a King George V Shilling. We hope you enjoy our outing in the Spring sunshine -- with a bit of trainspotting thrown in! Happy Hunting everyone! www.nqexplorers.com
