631 - Bajool / Eagle Junction

Bajool post office, 33 km south east of Rockhampton, opened around May 1903, was reduced to a receiving office in January or February 1904 and became a post office once more around June 1911. This canceller would have been used from 1903-04. 

The Bajool 10 bar railway numeral cancellor is numeral 651. It has not been seen postally used but it is possible that the Bajool 631 example shown here on a postcard is in fact the 651 railway canceller
