Not a bad video about railways in out back Australia. Specifically the "Ghan"



Also check out some of the other episodes in the series, recommend the one on the "monsoon railway" in India.

Hi Alan

You've done the same as me, I can't see the video as it's 'not available in your country', which is what everyone outside the UK got when I tried to post a link to a program here.

What a pity Ed, you missed a great documentary. I think that the Chris Tarrant got quite a surprise with the Australian train 'The Ghan'. But I was quite surprised and impressed with the 'Monsoon Railway' down the west coast of India.

Thanks for putting up the link Alan.

Cheers, Gary.

Great to hear you sorted the problems out Ed.

Yes its probably the best of the bunch that I have seen on the Ghan over the years.

Driven and flown all over this great country of ours and still find it hard to believe just how big Australia is.
The Ghan trip isn't as long as the Trans Siberia mind. Now that is a long way to have to travel….
