Nsw trip planner

Hi
We are thinking of doing some motoring trips around NSW during this spring.
In the "good old days" when NRMA was a truly service organisation it was just a matter of visiting one of their outlets and obtain a set of handy
"strip maps" to cover your itinerary. These also provided notes on what to see and expect on the way. I have not be able to find the equivalent on the NRMA net site.
Does anyone know of an app site that could provide an equivalent of "strip maps" and perhaps with reviews of what a tourist may expect in the various
outback towns? We are particularly interested in old style architecture, historical stuff and local parks,gardens etc.
Cheers Peter

I thought the maps were still available at NRMA shopfronts.

Hi Laurie
You must go to a good shopfront. I was given a blank look, offered some
expensive books and the told to look on the NRMA net.
Cheers Peter
