| I've Been Working on the Railway |
The camp life, the realities of the work, the hardships, the separation from their land, islands and family and the opportunities and challenges of working on the railway.

Their stories are about their achievements, like the 1968 World Track Laying record set by a predominantly Torres Strait Island gang, but also about so much more.
