Hi Greg, I think I spoke to you about your article last Fri night but forgot to ask when you had gone. On Sat night I was viewing our video taken from the Indian Pacific on our way back from Perth and there were a few segments with the track on it.
Are there any gates on the road/track ? Thanks for the reply.

There is a small detour to some limestone caves between Cook and Nullarbor which are worth a look. I was there in Easter 2000, but I can't remember the name of the place. I seem to recall using the Hema SE sheet but I may be wrong.

I came across the section on this website re road conditions and there was some info about the Tarcoola - Cook road - access stricly prohibited, with hefty fines if caught. I think we will abandon the idea of travelling along there.
Thanks for your responses anyway.

Hi Margaret, I believe it would be a worthwhile trip. Do you know on whose property the road was on last year ? I believe that currently the road is on Rail Track Corporation property and that Transfield only do the maintenance on the railway. RTC aren't keen for anyone to use the road because of lack of maintenance and liability issues. It is a pity because that part of the country should be very interesting at least as far as Ooldea. If you have any further thoughts please send them through.
