Sounds like Omnis 00:37-00:49 My name's Phil McCreen (PM) I am the train manager in great in great southern railways. And I'm one of nine train managers that works with great southern railways in (somewhere) and the . 00:50-00:54 AC-What can you tell me about the Ghan. What is this train? 00:56-1: 12-Nervous conductor 1 :15-2:01 PM-Well the history of the Ghan started in 1929, we used to leave port augusta, the train had no time table and you could catch the train and be up to a month late stuck out here in the middle of the bush. Stranded because the waters used to come down and wash the track away. Um, to me the Ghan is part of the legacy of Austrailian rail travel. Which is to me, I was brought up on trains, and to me the romanticism, the magic of trains and to work them you know, was like one of my ambitions. Or be a policeman, one or the other. But I chose the trains because my dad worked here. 2:02 -2:05-AC-And the Ghan, the Ghan is a special train in Australia . 2:06-2:42 PM It's one of them. Yeah, it's one of the few remaining trains in Australia that has survived cost cutting, efficiency progress, and yes, it's the only train that gets you to the middle of Australia . Especially now that we leave Sydney it brings the eastern states into it. And melbourne. The only other way to get to the middle of Australia is to catch a plane or a bus or drive there. Or here you can get to see the heartland of Australia in comfort 2:43-2:45 AC-Where does it get it's name? The Ghan? 2:45-3:14PM-From the afghan camalese that used to be out here working the camel trains. Before there was rail or road, everything that used to be brought up to central austrailia was brought up by the camels and they brought in a lot of pakastani and afghan camels to work the camels, and uh, being Australia n, everything in Australia has a new word for it. Instead of saying afghan we say 'Ghan', and that's where the Ghan came from. 3: 18-3 :23 AC-You manage other trains, PM-Yeah. AC-you take other trains? PM¬Yeah, union pacific. AC-How does this one compare? 3:24-4:02 PM-How does this one compare to the other trains? AC-Yeah ... PM-It's a lot shorter trip. It's urn, ahum, there's more intensity on the union pacific to work because you've got more meals to do, you've got more duties to perform whereas this one is a lot more relaxing. Whereas you only do dinner and do a breakfast. And you got more time to spend to talk to your passengers. Whereas on the other trains you're really pressed for time for a lot of things. Unless you're running late. That's the only thing 4:02-4:06 AC-You said the Ghan had a reputation for not having a timetable. 4:07-Yeah, that was up 1984, the train could be, if like if it rained, before they used to just lay the tracks on the sand with the wooden slates. When the waters used to come down it just totally obliterate and wash the tracks away, and then the w... (Notes truncated)
