Old Ghan Rail Museum

 
DH14 still works but its now stuck in its shed




 
Needs a clean

 
Workshop was originally in Katherine, has not been used in a year or 3



 
NSU Loco used for spare parts


 
Bit of a grave yard
 

 
 
Rail line to Adelaide, closed in 1980, was in use by the museum up until 2009 heavy rain
damaged the line now its condemned

 
Nice and shiny
 
 
Sun faded


 


 


 
Built in 1954
