Day 5 of the #adventure dawned in Broken Hill. This morning we are being shown around by the fabulous Shelita. 10/10 no notes, definitely the standout event thus far. #IndianPacific #brokenhillnsw

New at my Patreon... On an excursion from the Indian Pacific train in Broken Hill, we were presented with a lone meringue and a cornucopia of native fruits and sauces made from native ingredients, and were invited to go crazy with them in creating our own individual pavlova. Here's the result:

The train's now in Mount Victoria (where a bunch of passengers got off for tours), and will apparently take four hours to reach Sydney Central from here. Kinda curious how they'll manage to travel that bit so slowly. I'm in my comfy room though, no hurry.

Among my #2024 train travels, one certainly stands out: #Sydney to #Perth on board the #IndianPacific 🇦🇺. Passing through the Outback over night, one could see the Southern Cross 🌌 through the train window. A most memorable moment for someone from the Northern Hemisphere. ✨🌟💫

#Perth 🇦🇺 is the terminus station for the #IndianPacific from #Sydney, yet it’s not the end of the line: on a suburban train one can reach #Fremantle, a port town right by the Indian Ocean. (And it’s got a really nice train station.)

Next to the #Sleepers and the #LoungeCar|s, the long consist of the #Sydney to #Perth #IndianPacific 🇦🇺 includes some beautifully decorated @diningcar|s where freshly cooked breakfasts, lunches and dinners can be enjoyed in a cosy atmosphere.

#Cook 🇦🇺 in the middle of no… err, in the middle of the #Nullarbor Plain. A fresh-air stop, as remote as it can get: #Adelaide and #Perth are each more than 1,000 kms away. And: it’s THE opportunity for everyone to take pictures of the #IndianPacific, its 27 cars and the loco.

The #IndianPacific 🇦🇺 from #Sydney to #Perth via #Adelaide has got a number of Lounge Cars in its consist: perfect places to unwind, to enjoy some really good coffee ☕️ or a drink.

The first full day on the #IndianPacific 🇦🇺 with an afternoon arrival into #Adelaide. Nice views from the cabin window throughout. On some occasions, when the train is going through a curve, one can see the two engines at the front of the train‘s long consist.

Leaving #Sydney 🇦🇺, the stainless steel cars of the #IndianPacific shine in the last rays of sunlight as the train climbs up the #BlueMountains at dusk.
First evening on the train. First dinner (🦘😉) in the @diningcar.

Boarding the #IndianPacific 🇦🇺 at #Sydney Central. The train is almost 30 cars long. The 4,352 km long journey to #Perth, on the other end of #Australia, will last 65 hours they say. Plenty of mileage ahead then. And what a beautiful train!

On my eighth visit to Cook, a former railway town that's now a ghost town. Possibly an excessive number.

I think we’re still in Western Australia, that it’s still day 1 of the 3-night trip from Perth to Sydney on the #IndianPacific. #SlowTV #knitting #SBSonDemand
