Doubly delightful! To this American’s ear, the sound and flow of the words “The Mixed Ghan at Puttapa Gap” has a three dimensional quality that demands a myth behind it! Add that to the story of occasionally being stuck at a flooded river crossing and a competent writer should be able to cobble together a decent adventure novel or perhaps a mystery of some sort.
That’s a substantial investment in fixed assets you have there. The sum of the numbers was 1.425 billion rather than the 1.2 billion mentioned, but either number is a substantial debt. I hope that the purported economic benefits come to pass. It certainly seems like an attractive proposition.

Some of the native Australian names for things are very interesting.
