Scenes from Narrogin, a town in Western Australia. Until the 1980s it was a railway hub, with lines feeding out across the southern part of the state. During the harvest season the station never closed, with passenger and freight trains jostling for space. Today shopfronts stand vacant, the hotels have shut, by mid afternoon the streets have fallen quiet. Still, residents insist there's a new spark about the place, that things are picking up.
