Catching the train, 1932

In every country to-day roams a new race of nomads – young men who cannot get jobs and have to make the best of it. Australia has her quota of this “floating population” but the lot of its members here is far happier than elsewhere... The writer has studied first hand the life, philosophy, and character of the modern bagman, whose home is a command camp and whose track is the railway line.

By an unidentified photographer for an article in The Sun by Arthur Howells. 18 September 1932
