[@aussiewarrior96]

For those who don’t know; when it’s the summer season (November to February), the Ghan trains are used for the Great Southern train from Adelaide to Brisbane due to the hot sun warping the tracks

[@Originalman144]

it's simply more of a business decision. The summer is not the tourist season in the northern territory for a reason. The caravan parks along the way lie near empty.

Hi Jeb Suzanne. Great editing and video. I'm a Locomotive Engineer in NZ. Most of my fellow Locomotive Engineer mates Male Female jumped ship 20 years ago to Australia and ended up driving the Ghan . Up front 2 of them do 12 hour shifts and retire to their mobile home behind the Locomotives. Everytime they're back in NZ they always visit me trying to convince me to join them. Unfortunately I find 11 hours max driving our own trains around NZ is enough let alone 56 hours in a straight line. If anything I would like to explore the rail trips around Alaska as a few of my colleagues say that is a great railway journey to experience. I enjoyed your video and finally would like to say NZ has a great view of Railway journeys that might interest you. Take care and you never know, I might bump into you guys on our NZ Railroad Journeys. Go safe , good health. Wayne.

[@dingobonza]

This is the most factual video I've seen about Australia from an American. Well done mate.

[@AverytheCubanAmerican]

Although the both of you definitely enjoyed the journey, I guess you could say your iPad very much didn't 😂. Yup, the Outback sand is quite red! This is because Australia happens to have a perfect environment for oxidation. This occurs in rocks that contain high amounts of iron. In this type of environment, these rocks actually begin to rust. As the rust expands, it weakens the rock and helps break it apart. The oxides produced through this process give the ground its reddish hue. And that telegraph station you saw played a role in the founding of Alice Springs! Although the Arrernte people have lived in the area for at least 30,000 years, Alice Springs was established in 1861 by John McDouall Stuart during an expedition through Central Australia. Originally called Stuart, it was renamed Alice Springs when the Australian Overland Telegraph Line repeater station was constructed. Playing a key role in connecting Darwin to Adelaide, the telegraph line was completed in 1872, spanning 3,200 kilometers! So both The Ghan and the telegraph line are incredible feats and truly show that anything is possible as long as you believe and never give up.

Thanks Jeb and Suzanne! The Indian Pacific is the one on my bucket list, but The Ghan also looks cool so this video has made me add it to the bucket list too! Shame you didn't get to explore Adelaide that much because it's quite the interesting city! Adelaide was named after Queen Adelaide who was the wife of King William IV, but the Kaurna people called the area Tarntanya which means "red kangaroo place". Surveyor Colonel William Light was charged with surveying the city layout. The result was unique, the world's only city within a park, which it still is today. Surrounded by 900 hectares of parkland! The Adelaide terminal of The Ghan and Indian Pacific didn't open until 1984! It opened to allow Australian National to vacate the main Adelaide railway station. In 1997, the Australian government sold Australian National's passenger operations to Great Southern Rail, which is now Journey Beyond.

Dear Suzanne and Jeb, I just love your footage! I enjoy your sincerity. You can be critical, but not really complaining. I can tell you absolutely appreciate the things you experience and share with us. Again, you can be critical, but where other KZbinrs use that as “clickbait” you use it to inform us, and show reality. I love your content, and enjoy watching every single bit of it. Keep up the good work!!

This looks like the most lavish train I've ever seen! Literally like a hotel room!

[@melg6834]

Lol, someone hasn't seen enough

This is going on my travel bucket list. What an amazing journey.

[@GreenerGrass]

Absolutely recommend it!

I did the Indian Pacific from Sydney to Perth and it was a journey of a lifetime. Loved it, the train, the people and the beautiful Australia. Great views and upload.

That’s the one I want to do. I have a son in Perth I’m in Sydney and my other son in Darwin. My daughter is here in Sydney with me…..

​@Jane Gilmore gee they really went to the ends of the earth to get away from you Jane 🤣

​@@ACDZ123lol When I moved to Perth from Brissy many years ago, my dear old Dad said you couldn't get any further away then if you moved OS. Your comment gave me a giggle.

@carolinelane9599 I hope Jane didn't take my comment to heart ..she didn't reply lol

Just watched one of your trips when you were on Amtrak and then stumbled onto this one. Was in Australia in the late 90's and fortunately took The Ghan from Alice Springs to the outback. We were not booked at the level of accommodations you had but everything about this train ride was fabulous!

We did the journey in reverse last year with my husband’s parents and really enjoyed it. I think the food on board was the highlight for me as well as meeting other travellers, many of whom had interesting stories to tell. As it was summer, we didn’t stop off in Coober Pedy unfortunately. Did you stay in Darwin for a bit? It’s quite different to the rest of Australia.

[@cathychristensen8853]

I just love your videos. I get to travel the country and see so many things I wouldn’t otherwise get to see. Thank you!

[@bencampbell_7]

From a viewer POV, this is so entertaining to watch, this is definitely going on my bucket list in my life, such a great video Jed, keep it up, love this content!

[@HankGrill]

I'll never be able to even go to AUS much less ride that train so I will just enjoy the travel videos.

[@bencampbell_7]

Yeah, that’s exactly what I do!

[@mandy.austin]

I have done this trip twice and i love it, only wish you could spend more nights on the train, the beds are wonderful!

I lived in Katherine in the 90s /early 00s & the Gorge will always hold a special place in my heart. Midnite hikes, school camps, weekend canoeing, swimming. Every time someone visited we did the Gorge cruise. Fun fact, the crocodile movie 'Rogue' with Michael Vartan was filmed there.

SO GLAD YOU GUYS POSTED AN HONEST AND TRANSPARENT VIEW POINT ON THE GHAN. I know it’s obviously not your intent at all but to see what you get for the price you pay the experience needs to be upgraded. Australia is such an amazing country and to travel for such a long time and not have more stops into beautiful destinations ( as in presentation when you get off the train) and have more activities, cultural interaction and more memorable entertainment/experiences. Definitely travel to far North Queensland and see the rainforest, coral reefs and Uluṟu. Now these are experiences you definitely will enjoy.
