Summary

Interior view of the Transcontinental Hotel at Oodnadatta. The publican is Brenton Chester. The photographer comments on Oodnadatta, "The decision to close the railway line and build the new track from Tarcoola to Alice Spring railway appeared to herald the end of Oodnadatta. The last Ghan train departed from Oodnadatta in 1980. However the local Aboriginal community were determined to retain the town as their home. It is now predominantly an Aboriginal settlement."
