The Meeting Place: A Social History of the Adelaide to Darwin Railway draws on oral histories, archival records and photos to tell the stories of the people who designed, built and depended on the railway: from turning the first sod in Port Augusta in 1878 to the completion of the new Alice Springs to Darwin line in 2004.
'The Meeting Place' covers:

the contribution of the railway to the social and economic development of South Australia and the Northern Territory and the cyclical fortunes of towns along the route
the overland telegraph and railway as a 'meeting place' of Aboriginal, settler and other cultures
Aboriginal people who took on leadership roles during construction of the railway, from Oodnadatta to Darwin
the indispensable role of immigration, with thousands of Afghan, Chinese, Greek, White Russian, Welsh Patagonians, Italian, Irish and Maltese workers
hard manual labour and life in the railway camps
the women who ran railway hotels and tearooms
the role of railway volunteers during World War Two
the 'Romance of the Rail', with nearly 100 years of travel on the Ghan between South Australia and the Northern Territory
the critical role of modern railway maintenance teams across remote Australia.

The 272-page hard cover book has been published by the AustralAsia Railway Corporation (representing the South Australian and Northern Territory Governments) to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the new Alice Springs to Darwin standard gauge railway.
Dr Jane Munday is a social researcher and community engagement practitioner based in Darwin, Northern Territory. Born and raised in Adelaide, she has lived and worked in the Northern Territory since 1994.

Best product I have found!!! Love love love it!!
Color: Picotonic Shot
This product And all the other dr Melaxin products are awesome. I have seen visible changes in my skin and my forehead wrinkles or creases if you will have diminished. I have to creases in my forehead and one between my eyes and ai can’t even see that anymore and he one on my forehead has lightened up and is not as prominent. My skin is visible plumper I am 49 and look like I am maybe 38. I have probably spent thousands of dollars on all kinds of beauty products and none work like these!! Definetly purchase hem I just bought my second bottle. I have only been using this for three months and it deminished the wrinkles in that amount of time. Also get yourself the spicual shot as well it is the pink one it's a micro needling serum and you don’t feel tingly and you don’t get red irritated akin like you do with other micro needling products. Definitely buy all their products. If you do I would get their set of skin care with the serums the cleanser, the turmeric exfoliator,therice exfoliator that is awesome all you do it put a few drops where you have black heads and you rub it into your skin in circles and it pulls out the black heads and exfoliates at the same time. I will never buy another product again their entire beauty line is great they have all you would need for beautiful skin.

Brightened My Skin and Helped Dark Spots
Color: Picotonic Shot, Color: Picotonic Shot
I’ve really liked using the Dr. Melaxin Protonic Shot Serum! The bottle is pretty small, and since I used it twice a day it lasted me about 4 months. But one pump is enough for my whole face. My skin feels very smooth after using it, and I’ve noticed some darker spots becoming lighter over time. I’ve also seen a brighter look under my eyes, which has been a huge plus for me!
