These are 2 pics of Broadway. One is in New York, the other is in Reefton. Can you tell which is which?
Actually, Reefton's main street got it's name from Thomas Broad, the first resident magistrate in the town. When he arrived there, he got out of the coach outside Dawson's Hotel, looked up the mud-track and he said, "Well, it's not Broadway." So they changed the name so that it is.
Not quite the same, but at least they've got the same name.

Heck I think the absence of overhead power lines might just give it away!
Very well spotted, Charlie!
(Just too easy, wasn't it?)
cheers
You just live in a dream world don't you Mr Hunt!
That is a very old picture of Reefton, maybe it has changed? ? ?
Three Cheeky Little Myttons!
It's not that old - "tous change, tous la meme"
So there!
cheers
BTW - if you look very closely, at the far end of Broadway, you can see the Monteiths Brewery.
cheers again
