  • Beautiful

  • @jessi259 Thanks

  • @OzPix why they named it Afghan express?

  • @yousos89 The Afghan Express is the name railwaymen gave to the passenger train that ran from Terowie to Oodnadatta, through Quorn, in 1923. This was the first time a sleeping carriage was included on the train, and when an Afghan passenger alighted at Quorn to recite his evening prayers, the train was dubbed the Afghan Express by railwaymen. In time, this was abbreviated to The Ghan and eventually used by CR officials.

  • Неужели в Афганистане есть железные дороги? Их там никогда небыло. Дар Афгонестон рохгои охан вучуд надорад.

  • Doesn't translate but we hope you liked it. Thanks for watching.
