Maps showing the two main phases of construction of the Adelaide–Darwin rail corridor spanning a period of 149 years

Summary[edit]

Description
English: Map pair showing the two main phases of construction of the Adelaide–Darwin rail corridor over a period of 149 years. The first was a series of intermittent railway construction projects (mainly narrow gauge) from Adelaide northwards, 1855 to 1929, and narrow gauge from Darwin southwards, 1877 to 1929. A gap of 900 kilometres (560 miles) in between required goods and passengers alike to be transferred to road. The line was never completed.

The second phase was a standard gauge line built in two stages over a period of 29 years: Tarcoola to Alice Springs completed in 1980 and Alice Springs–Darwin completed in 2004.
