Sleeping berths, digger style
Description
An impression of the Cairns military train at night. As the carriages are to crowded for all the stretch out, many prefer to sleep on the floor or in the corridors to get a reasonable sleep despite people gingerly, and not always successfully, picking their way among the recumbent bodies.
