Well today history was made. The Ghan arrived in Darwin- well a freight train anyway.

Promised in 1910 in return for the State of South Australia relinguishing the Northern Territory to Commonwealth control it has only taken the Eastern dickheads 94 years to deliver on their promise.

Why? Well the vested interests of Eastern state industry cented around the Eastern seaboard docks have lobbied, torpedoed, confusticated, scared, ran BS alternative train projects since 1910. Suck sh*t Corrigan.

Finally the Northern gateway is open.

Unfortunately probably in 50 years the NT will be a developed area and highly populated so get your hunting in now. You have only got 50 years!
