Digging out a career in mining

Bill Morrison has been working in the coal mines of the Illawarra since 1973. Today he works as a training officer at the Southern Mines Rescue Station. Bill takes us on a tour of the simulated mine underneath the rescue station and the station's advanced virtual reality training simulator while talking about how mining has changed from the days when he started out.
