In a museum at the Coolgardie Railway Station, Western Australia, a most unusual piece of equipment is exhibited. On display is diving gear which was used in a dramatic rescue attempt from a flooded mine just over a hundred years ago. The rescue of the trapped miner rates as an epic in Australian mining history, alongside that of two miners in Beaconsfield, Tasmania, in 2006.
