Port Augusta to Darwin: The Ghan

Michael Portillo ventures Down Under to explore Australia by train.

Michael traces its route from the southern harbour of Port Augusta to Darwin on the north coast, along the way meeting the indigenous people of Alice Springs, visiting a kangaroo sanctuary and joining Australians to mark the anniversary of Anzac Day, the First Word War battle that defined their nation.
