Description

This circumstances of this photograph are unknown, but it shows a schooner rigged scow named 'Advance' at a jetty alongside what appears to be a steam train or traction engine. This may have been the boat built by Brown & Sons at Kaipara in 1903. According to Watt's Shipping Index, this was transferred to Sydney in 1908, where it was wrecked in 1915.
