The Old Ghan Locomotive Train. The Ghan is an Australian passenger train service between Adelaide, Alice Springs and Darwin on the Adelaide - Darwin railway.

This collection of restored Ghan locos and carriages will please train buffs and anyone else interested in this pioneering railway (originally called the Afghan Express after the cameleers who forged the route). There's also the Old Ghan Tea Rooms and an ad hoc assortment of railway memorabilia in the lovely Stuart railway station.
