AUSTRALIA’S GREATEST STEAM ADVENTURE 🚂 🇦🇺 Today marks 50 years since the Western Endeavour departed Sydney for its epic journey to Perth. Through the course of the week-long journey, people gathered in the hundreds and thousands to catch a glimpse of locomotives 3801 and 3813 hauling the first ever steam train to cross the Australian continent.
