Lunch in Quorn

We had a group lunch in a little cafe in the main street in Quorn - soup and bread roll and salad roll. Then we walked around the main street and bought a postcard, some Quandong Jam and some stamps.

Then the tourist Pichi Richi steam train arrived and many people disembarked. It's school holidays in SA and Quorn is very popular. There were some lovely statues made with chicken wire near the Railway Station.
A few movies have been made in Quorn - Walkabout 1952, Robbery Under Arms 1956, Sunday Too Far Away 1975, Gallipoli 1980 plus many more.

We had about 45 mins to look around then set off for Beltana. We called in at Parachilna and along the way we saw emus, kangaroos, wild goats, old homestead ruins, small cemeteries, long goods trains and the Flinders Ranges in the distance to the right.Read more
