| 背面描述 | A perspective view of railway lines receding toward the horizon, set within an outline map of Australia, commemorating the completion of the Adelaide to Darwin transcontinental railway. The city names Darwin, Alice Springs, and Adelaide are inscribed to denote the principal stations along the route, with a stylised locomotive depicted in the lower portion of the design. The date 2004 appears within the composition, marking the year of the railway's completion. |

The Adelaide to Darwin railway was not a 2004 novelty — it was the completion of a project first proposed in the 1850s, when South Australia was still a British colony. The line had been partially built, abandoned, and politically resurrected so many times over 150 years that its final completion became a genuine national occasion. The last spike was driven in 2003, making this coin among the most immediately commemorative issues the Royal Australian Mint has produced — struck within months of the line's operational debut.
The full 2,979-kilometre route through the Red Centre had long been called the "Ghan," after the Afghan cameleers who once supplied the interior before rail.
