Affectionately called the "Tin Hare", the Gulflander has rattled along its isolated 152 km line between Normanton and Croydon in the Gulf Savannah since 1891.
The Gulflander is one of Australia's great rail curiosities — a self-contained heritage line that connects to no other railway, running weekly between Normanton and Croydon across the Gulf Savannah. The historic rail motor takes about five hours, with the guard sharing the stories of the line along the way. A bucket-list trip for rail enthusiasts and outback travellers.
