Quorn, Southern Flinders Ranges (arrived Sunday, 20th March departed Tuesday, 22nd March) Famous for the Pichi Richi railway and the filming of Gallipoli and Sunday Too Far Away. It rained most of the way from the Barossa to Quorn. We had planned to stop for a night or two at Melrose…but as it was still raining when we arrived we decided to push on to Quorn (much to the disappointment of the boys who were a bit over the trip).
