NATIONAL RAILWAY MUSEUM
Welcome to the most haunted place in Port Adelaide!
This isn’t surprising since it stands on top of where the working part of the old Port Dock Railway Station used to be. Industrial accidents including a young boy crushed between two carriages and even a murder or two, could well account for the strange goings on there.

Did some of them follow their beloved homes? Or could it be the numerous deaths on the land itself, including the mysterious body that lies in an unmarked grave.
