This blog has become a sort of personal-cum-public diary. As for its contents, some are meant for me and my friends and relatives; others are for the public. This blog will have only positive, ennobling, elevating, encouraging and uplifting thoughts/ideas/materials. Whoever visits should feel happy and should be able to pick up some good ideas/thoughts/links. In short, "NOTHING NEGATIVE" is my motto.(Grateful thanks to Jon Sullivan and Public-Domain-Photos.com for the background photo)

The
Indian Pacific is one of the world's finest train journeys, carrying passengers
on a three night, four day excursion, the full 4,352km across Australia between
Sydney and Perth. This is a must-take trip for the rail enthusiast, being in
the top five longest trains in the world, and traversing the world's longest
straight piece of track (478km) on the Trans Australian Railway on the
Nullarbor Plain. It's a luxury experience, encompassing several off-train stops
and excursions at places of interest along the route.
On
this trip, I was kindly hosted by Great Southern Rail, who operate this
magnificent train. Tickets and journey information can be found at:
