Its in the state of Western Australia, along the southern coast, on the Nullarbor Plain Australia only transcontinental (east-west) railroad, The Great Southern Railway owns and operates the passenger train called the Indian Pacific with twice weekly service. The longest straight in the world is 478 kilometers, and at around 100 kilometers per hour it should take close to 5 hours to cross it. The Indian Pacific does not stop on the straight, but the city of Kalgoorlie is near, and its exactly 25 hours west of Adelaide on the trains schedule. The Indian Pacific starts in Sydney and arrives in Perth three days later. For more information: <br /> <br />http://www.railaustralia.com.au/indian_pacific.htm <br /> <br />
