I've thought EXACTLY the same.
I've gone down the occasional rabbit hole of watching YouTube videos of this kind of thing, and I think there may have been a TV series a few years back following drivers and crews of different trains around the country, these Nullarbor ones included. Plus the whole Ghan slow-travel thing on SBS too.
Yeah, I was up watching videos of the really long freight trains last night until 2:30
