This is a short look at CR railway action extracted from my "Steam in Western Australia" video, digitized from a reel of standard 8 film stock I bought years ago. I have no idea of its location, date or photographer. My guess is it is at Port Augusta in South Australia, dated somewhere around 1960. I think it initially shows the original Ghan departing, and then a loaded piggy-back train of narrow-gauge carriages being carried on special standard gauge flat cars arriving. I would love anyone to leave comments on this piece of our heritage. (The incidental music is courtesy of www.purple-pla....) Cheers, Terry (aka The Terrysaurus Rex)
