Caught this very impressive series on railroading in Australia Outbacks. A different aspect of railroading with impressive loads and dangers in the outbacks.

The announcers all sound same despite having an Australian accent.

Very interesting video. I would agree that the trains go through some pretty hostile conditions. The narrator said that the trains travel at incredible speeds - 100 km/hr - this works out to about 62 mph. I guess this is fast for a freight under adverse conditions - when he said incredible , I thought he meant higher than that. Interestingly, the diesel horns sound different than those in the U.S. Alfred

Aren't they also running autonomous trains with no engineer's or anyone on board?
