From the 6th to the 8th of September, the Pichi Richi Railway operated the 2019 Railfan Weekend featuring steam locomotives Yx 141, NM25, diesel locomotive NSU52.

This video features scenes of the Friday leg of the weekend with Yx 141 hauling the special from Quorn to Woolshed Flat and return.

The Pichi Richi Railway Preservation Society (PRRPS) is a not-for-profit incorporated association formed in 1973 to preserve the railway through Pichi Richi Pass. This is the most scenic part of the Port Augusta and Government Gums Railway (the original Ghan railway begun in 1878) featuring deep rock cuttings, superb stone wall embankments and spectacular iron bridges.

PRRPS has progressively restored and operated the Pichi Richi Railway as a working museum. PRRPS has also preserved a large collection of historic locomotives, goods and passenger vehicles, restoring many to working order.
