The Jetty Engine - renamed Green Frog back in the early 1980s.The old jetty had horses originally pulling the freight to and from the ships on rails (back in the 1880s and early 1890s before it was connected to the Byron to Lismore line ). The old jetty couldn't handle a heavy loco so this lightweight jetty engine was imported to replace the horses . The horses got taken to Woolgoolga Jetty for work .
