  Claremont (Western Australia) signal cabin
Claremont Cabin is situated midway between the Indian Ocean port of Fremantle and Perth, the capital of Western Australia.
A train smash which occurred at Claremont about 1.30 am yesterday was preceded and attended by a remarkable chain of circumstances which commenced with the tragic death of a railway fireman and terminated with a section of a Garratt engine being suspended across the Davies-road subway, Claremont, parallel to the permanent way.
At Claremont the signals were set against the train for the purpose of diverting it from the main line on to what is called the back road, a line which ends with a dead end, about 20 yards on the station side of the Davies-road subway.

 Claremont
Claremont again finished runners up a year later after raising hopes, first by finishing the home and away rounds with a 13-5-1 record to qualify for the finals as minor premiers, and then by overcoming East Fremantle in the 2nd semi final by 14 points.
Claremont was now indisputably the team to beat but, in 1940, took the situation in its stride, once again heading the list going into the finals (this time with a 15-5 record).
From the Claremont perspective, such a seismic lapse in concentration was highly uncharacteristic, and therefore somewhat worrying; however, at least it had the virtue of rendering the defeat explicable, and hence of giving the club's 'brains trust' a readily accessible fulcrum for improvement.
