On the tracks of the Ghan

GWU 003 and ALF 19 head south at Woocalla towards Port Augusta with single and double-stack containers. We had stopped by the line for a rest on our way to Woomera and had hoped for a train to appear. Needless to say it was only after we set off again that this one appeared in the opposite direction. A long chase followed until we were able to overhaul it and dash onto a small mound for a grab shot against the setting sun.
