Advisor Margot Jolly commenced in 2006 to develop a Strategic Management Plan for the three museums under the auspice of Council: Bland District Historical Society, Ungerie Historical Society and the Weethalle Whistlestop.

 

2009 saw the Bland Shire Council and the Bland District Historical Society gain a refurbished heritage courthouse and new building for a machinery display in Wyalong to house the Museum. Also in the Shire, the beginnings of a new display area, on the highway in Weethalle, for a remarkable collection of machinery from an elderly local farmer. Weethalle and the shire council were both successful in securing grants to assist with these projects.
