ArdeetHOST
What was the name of the town and why was that particular location chosen?
DKHOST
It was in Lithgow in New South Wales.
DKHOST
Why? I can only speculate, and I believe it's because the Blue Mountains protected it from the coast.
DKHOST
So in the event of an invasion of Sydney, basically it was a defensible area.
ArdeetHOST
Sorry, I thought you would, I should have said.
ArdeetHOST
I shouldn't say I knew you did, but I thought you would.
ArdeetHOST
Roughly, how many of these .303 rifles did Lithgow Arms turn out between 1912 and the early 1950s? And close enough would be good
DKHOST
enough.

We've got a few gremlins in the system behind the scenes, so we're sort of flying blind here at the moment, but our engineers are working feverishly behind the scenes.

Scott RobinsonHOST
He spent his career studying how regions absorb, or fail to absorb, major economic shocks, from factory closures to structural change.
Scott RobinsonHOST
And now he's working directly with Lithgow City Council on planning for the workforce and energy transitions that the town faces.
Scott RobinsonHOST
Lithgow is a perfect place to start because in a lot of ways, it's the canary in the coal mine, literally.
Scott RobinsonHOST
Andrew, welcome to the podcast.
Andrew BeerGUEST
Thanks, Scott.
Andrew BeerGUEST
It's going to be fundamental change that they have to look for.
Scott RobinsonHOST
Yeah, it is incredibly different in that respect of how intense it is in that.
Scott RobinsonHOST
And maybe that's a good chance for us to really focus maybe on Lithgow, you know, and for listeners who don't know it, walk us through like the town's energy history because, you know, it's obviously was a coal town and its role with, you know, Mount Piper and the surrounding mines have played, you know, a pretty big role in its identity and its economy.
Graham RossHOST
But the Hartley Valley Garden Festival and their plant fair is not on till next weekend, okay? So go for a drive.
Graham RossHOST
But as I've recommended for a, a f- on several times, uh, the traffic is going to be a bit of a nightmare, uh, because, uh, the Great Western Highway's blocked and it's slow to go because you've gotta go out, uh, out via, uh, uh, Lithgow.
Graham RossHOST
But when you come back, uh, to Hartley Valley, it, it's worth staying overnight somewhere.
Graham RossHOST
If it... there's plenty of, uh, Airbnb, uh, accommodation out that way.
Graham RossHOST
Oh, good.
Ash WalkerPANELIST
It's, I think, it's the only way, so yeah.
Ash WalkerPANELIST
You have, you have to go via Lithgow, isn't it?
Graham RossHOST
Lithgow.
DougHOST
And they did a magnificent job out there, didn't they, with the big street party in the middle of Bathurst, and well done.
DougHOST
And I'm tipping the people that stopped off at, uh, at Lithgow and Orange and all the other places around it, um, would've seen a beautiful part of New South Wales, uh, north, south, east, west of Bathurst.
DougHOST
And Bathurst is just a hub.
DougHOST
It's a great town.
DougHOST
We'll do that next hour as I say.
DougHOST
You are with the Duckers.
DougHOST
