I am interested in trains and railways and like to photograph them when I have the opportunity. This new addition to UHH inspired me to share these photos with others who may be interested.

Genesee & Wyoming Australia operates in New south Wales, South Australia and the Northern Territory of Australia and provides rail freight services to all Australian mainland capital cities. The attached photos capture a freight train hauled by three GWA diesel electric locomotives arriving in Alice Springs in central Australia in the late afternoon of Sunday 27th August 2017. After a brief stop-over it departs Alice Springs in the fading light to commence the second half of it's 2,979 km (1,851 miles) journey from Adelaide in South Australia to Darwin in the Northern Territory.
