Old Lambton Colliery

New South Wales, August 1929

At least most of this sequence was shot in the Old Lambton Mine, near Newcastle in New South Wales. This makes August 1929 the likely date of shooting, as the Brisbane Telegraph reports that Colin Ross left Sydney for his tour of Queensland in the first week of August.
