Ryan, Mary, 2007, Photograph, B 70570AA
Photograph, taken on 27 August 2007, of one of the sleeping cabins in the Prince of Wales Carriage, a private, self-contained carriage which can be chartered from Adelaide, Alice Springs or Darwin. The leather straps shown in the top half of the image are used to pull down the top sleeping berth. The Prince of Wales carriage was originally built in 1919 to accommodate a Royal visit from Edward, Prince of Wales. The timber carriage was recently refurbished and maintains many original features and accommodates up to ten guests.
