    Where is the longest stretch of straight rail track in the world?

    Question #99017. Asked by Twodeez. (Aug 29 08 11:09 PM)

    The 487km of train tracks that extend across the Nullarbor Plain is officially the world’s longest straight stretch of railroad. It’s only a fraction of the Indian-Pacific run, an epic train journey stretching from Perth to Sydney making it one of the world’s longest train journeys.

    (that's 297 miles)
