Petters 36HP Engine - "It had a huge fly wheel" (Bill Durack) Early Carlton Reach by Bill Durack in 1991 talking of 1941. EARLY HISTORY OF RESEARCH STATION — "CARLTON REACH,". [ … ] The Research Station was then set up by the Works and Agricultural Departments of Western Australia. The 14 acres were graded and fenced after mid 1941 and, the main channels formed. The pumping plant was installed, with diesel engine for power, to raise the waters of the Ord for irrigation, the first of significance ever undertaken in this area. As I recall, it was a beautiful engine which had originally been in service for many years on the Kalgoorlie Water Supply Scheme. [This has yet to be determined - KHS Research Note] I wonder where that engine might be today? It had a huge fly wheel which had to be accurately positioned before starting with compressed air. It was the heartbeat for those early activities. Extract from a 1991 conference, "“50 YEARS OF ORD IRRIGATION - REVIEW AND FUTURE PERSPECTIVES," from a paper presented by, W. A.
