Pichi Richi Railway

Quorn

The trains are running during weekends from May to November.
The Pichi Richi Railway opened in 1879, and was part of the first stage of the Great Northern Railway that was intended to link Port Augusta with Darwin.
The Ghan name originated in Quorn in 1923 when the Great Northern Express was dubbed The Afghan Express by railwaymen.
In 1929 this line reached Alice Springs.
