Wholesalers registered to trade alcohol in the NT provide the Department of Industry, Tourism and Trade with data on the volume of alcohol supplied to licensed retailers by product type (cask wine, bottled wine, fortified wine, cider, standard spirits, pre-mixed spirits, full strength beer, mid strength beer and low strength beer). The volume of each product supplied is multiplied by its estimated fraction of alcohol content so that the amount of pure alcohol associated with each product type can be compared. The figures presented represent the wholesale supply in litres of Pure Alcohol Content (PAC). Statistics are presented for the NT as a whole; each of the major urban centres (Darwin, Palmerston, Alice Springs, Katherine, Tennant Creek and Nhulunbuy) and for the NT Balance. An estimate of the apparent per capita consumption of alcohol in the NT is determined by dividing the total alcohol supplied by an estimate of the population likely to be drinking. As the NT is a major centre for tourism, the total population likely to be drinking is derived by adding the estimates of interstate and international tourist numbers to the Australian Bureau of Statistics’ estimates of the NT population aged 15 years and over.

The railways that link urban and regional Australia have played a significant role in the development of our nation. Rail transport contributes many billions of dollars every year to Australias economy. Many of the products we use every day have travelled by rail at some stage in their journey. From home to work or across the country, passenger trains carry more than 500 million people each year - thats around 25 times Australias population! With the opening of the Alice Springs to Darwin line in February 2004, all mainland capital cities and their ports are now connected by a 9420 kilometre network of standard gauge track, known as the Interstate Rail Network. The Railways of Australia thematic map reflects Australias impressive rail network. Whether it is used as a functional reference map or simply an outstanding wall-piece, Railways of Australia is a must for all rail enthusiasts and industries that rely on the nations rail network. Railways of Australia shows major passenger and freight lines, selected tourist railways, and metropolitan rail networks. Travelling times and distances, length of track, passenger loads, freight tonnage, and fabulous facts about Australias rail network are also included. This map was produced with the help of the Australasian Railway Association and Railpage.
