Lots of wheels 1
Every day around sunset, a huge container train would head north past Port Pirie, possibly bound for Perth or Darwin, thousands of kilometres away. I lost count of the cars around the 80 mark, and they were being pulled along with three huge Pacific National locomotives. I'm guessing the total length to be around 1.5 to 2 km.
The backdrop is the wonderful lower part of the Flinders Ranges in South Australia, and the town of Port Pirie where we stayed for a few days is about 3km directly behind me. The farmland near the base of the ranges was lush and green with newly emerged wheat crops.
