Big Lizzie
A giant 1916 tractor on display in Red Cliffs, which once hauled goods and cleared land in the outback. It is a popular roadside stop.
Big Lizzie is a giant steam-to-diesel tractor built in Melbourne between 1915 and 1916. It is about 10 meters long and weighs about 45 tonnes, and it used a distinctive "track wheel" design to travel across sand. It once hauled wool between the inland and helped clear land in the Red Cliffs area. It now stands in the central park of Red Cliffs, and visitors can see it for free. Information panels beside it tell its history. It is about 15 km from Mildura and is a convenient stop on the way south to Hattah National Park.
