The Great White Train was an effort in the 1920s by Sydney-based industrialists to convince Australians to 'Buy Australian Made'. The train was created by the Australia Made Preference League with the New South Wales government contributing £5000 to the project. The movie ''Undercover'' made about the Berlei company contained a segment on a recreation of the train filmed at Taralga. ==Composition of the train== The train had fifteen exhibition coaches in which the various companies displayed their 'artisans' products. The radio station 2XT was part of AWA's contribution to the train. The station was set up at each town and broadcast to the local community but was heard as far away as New Zealand with a clear signal. The sale of crystal radios to rural customers was one of the results but on the train's departure they had to make do with static filled reception from Sydney. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Great White Train」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
