Hi everyone, some pics of the old Hume south of Yass (from before the 1977 (iirc) realignment at Derringullen Creek). There's a pic of the rest area from June 1976 edition of Main Roads (prior to the realignment) as well as a shot from last year...note the two blue bins and shade structure seem to have survived :). Have also included pics of another former alignment just south of here, the Sydney bound one featuring a rusty guardrail that has also managed to somehow survive.

Nice finds Csanad. I need to make time for a look :)

I was on the old Barton Hwy at Yass today, the old NH25 sign has been recently replaced, sadly, thankfully though, a mate got a pic for me before it went.

Thanks. Shame about those old signs too.

Yeah it is a shame, but it was only the NH25 Yass half, the other side was removed when the road was switched to the new alignment.
