A very handsome Roll of Honor has been erected at the Narrabri West railway station. It is composed of beaten copper of artistic design, the names of the enlisted men being placed upon copper plates, and attached to the ground work. The "Roll" is a distinct credit to the railway men of the West, and will perpetuate the memory of service men who have done their utmost to help the "Old Dart" carry a big burden for the sake of righteousness and liberty.
