Australia's railway runs straight for 297 miles
HERE’S THE INTERESTING PART
The Nullarbor Plain is a landscape so devoid of features that railway engineers simply gave up on the concept of turning.

The view out the window consists of scrub brush, red dirt, and your own descending madness as you stare at a horizon that never, ever changes.
One discovery leads to another.
