Upgrade of 4 January 2022
Hi everyone, The paragraph re the town/locality's history was revised to remove the following statements which are not supported by any citations and/or do not supported by the content of what might be considered to be "reliable sources":


 * 1) Bruce was first settled in 1850 and declared a town in 1876, replete with parklands and boasting cricket and tennis teams.
 * 2) It suffered terribly from the 1864-66 drought,
 * 3) An historic railway town in the centre of the Willochra Plain, it was on the Peterborough–Quorn railway line, part of the train voyage from Sydney to Perth between 1917 and 1937

In respect to the first two items, it would appear that none of described events and outcomes did not occur because the land was not available for occupation until 19 May 1881. Re the third item, the content has been simplified/revised to focus on the subject of the article rather on the subject of the railway system which is covered by other articles.
