	Railways in Australia and Great Train Journeys - Stories from Australia's Culture and Recreation Portal
		Australia's first trains began operating in 1854, when the country was still a group of separate colonies.
		When railway construction began in Australia in the 1850s, the engineers favoured the gauge system they were most familiar with: the emerging standard gauge (rails 1,425 millimetres apart) from England and Europe or the broad gauge (rails 1,590 millimetres apart) from Ireland.
		A train route crossing Australia from north to south was noted in the 1870s as an important facility to improve trade and communications with Darwin and, in turn, with Asia and Europe, but it took over a century for it to be completed.

		Interesting aspects: One of the most common butterflies in Australia, particularly in the hot arid inland areas where hundreds of these butterflies can be seen flying around individual Acacia when in bloom.
		The butterfly probably has some degree of nomadic dispersal ability (typical of the Polyommatini group of lycaenids), as their adult morphology is uniform and they often turn-up in habitat areas in which the hostplant buds are not mature enough to support the larvae.
		In South Australia the butterfly is more common in warmer areas, and tends to be rare in the South Mt Lofty Range and the Lower Southeast in the cool eucalypt forests.
