On 22 May 1872 the first message was sent from Darwin to Adelaide. The contractor, E. M. Bagot, was responsible for the 800 km of telegraph line north from Port Augusta. He was paid \u00a341 per mile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Alberrie\/Mutonia Sculpture Park<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Located on the Oodnadatta Track between Marree and Oodnadatta, the Mutonia Sculpture Park at Alberrie Creek is a collection of huge sculptures in the desert all of which were created by Robin &#8216;Mutoid&#8217; Cooke who started with The Giant Ragweed, then Plane Henge, two planes standing erect on their tails, and followed with Dream Catcher, Spinning Car and Time Tree. Beside the Track is the &#8216;Dingo&#8217;. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The original concept was &#8216;Dottie the Dingo&#8217;, but since then the locals have dubbed it the &#8216;Big Dog&#8217;. The dog&#8217;s body is an old water tank from the days of the steam train, and its head is a classic Chrysler.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":904,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","listing-category":[50],"list-tags":[],"location":[110],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v14.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Oodnadatta Roadhouse SA | Country Airstrips Australia<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Oodnadatta Roadhouse SA have staff eager to help everyone.
