Pichi Richi Railway

Experience the charm of South Australia's Flinders Ranges aboard the Pichi Richi Railway, a heritage line operating since 1878. Managed by the dedicated Pichi Richi Railway Preservation Society, this working museum offers a variety of journeys on the historic "Old Ghan" route between Quorn and Port Augusta. Travel in restored carriages, some over 130 years old, hauled by authentic steam and diesel locomotives. The museum, located within the Quorn Railway Station, showcases a rich collection of railway memorabilia and models, providing insights into the region's rail history. Operating from March to November, the railway offers experiences like the Afghan Express, a full-day trip from Port Augusta to Quorn, and the Pichi Richi Explorer, a half-day journey from Quorn to Woolshed Flat. Advance booking is recommended due to high demand.
