Gavin Hamilton, of Linslade, Bedfordshire, UK writes:

I think the picture you have labelled as G42-2.jpg is not G42, as it has inside frames I have identified it as BP 6794/1936 or BP 6935/1939 from the Australian Portland Cement Co.'s Fyansford, Victoria works (unfortunately I don't know which one is preserved).

So the image has been moved:
