Bound for South Australia - 4: Broken Heel

Broken Hill's a mining town, but these days it's the legacy of films made in and around it that attract all the tourist attention. 

First there was Mad Max. Then the drag queens of The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert have led to the creation of a Broken Heel Festival (postponed due to COVID this time). 

Top attraction is the very colourful Palace Hotel, featured prominently in the movie.

Abandoned!

A train line near Dubbo. You can still get to Dubbo by train. Still get further west, to Broken Hill, as far as I can tell. But most of the smaller branch lines in New South Wales closed down long ago. Here's one of them.
