Tarcoola is in Outback South Australia.
Tarcoola is a town that was. Most renown for being the last station on both the trans-continental railways, before they diverge towards Perth and Darwin. Originally settled because of gold mining in the area, the mining ceased in the area about 50 years ago, and the town has been in decline. It experienced a brief resurgence during the construction and maintenance of the standard gauge Ghan railway in the 1970s and 1980s. Today, it nearly qualifies as a ghost town.
