It is on the eastern edge of the Nullarbor Plain, {{convert|863|km|mi|abbr=on}} west of Port Augusta on the Trans-Australian Railway. Ooldea is {{convert|143|km|mi|abbr=on}} from the bitumen Eyre Highway. HistoryIt was the site of a mission for Aboriginal children which was visited twice by Norman Tindale and was home for many years to Daisy Bates, both concerned with understanding and protecting Aboriginal culture. A cairn commemorating Daisy Bates was designed by F. Millward Grey and erected in 1953.[4] Ooldea was an important camp during construction of the railway, as it is near a permanent waterhole, first discovered by Europeans when Ernest Giles used it in 1875. On 17 October 1917 the final link of the railway was completed at Ooldea, linking the western section from Kalgoorlie to the eastern section to Port Augusta.[5] On 17 October 2017, a centenary celebration was held at the siding.[6] The town was dependent on the Tea and Sugar Train for the delivery of supplies until 1996 when the train was withdrawn. The longest dead straight section of railway line in the world starts west of Ooldea before Watson at the 797 km post and continues to a point between Loongana and Nurina, a distance of {{convert|478|km|mi|abbr=on}}. The historic Ooldea Soak and Former United Aborigines Mission Site and Daisy Bates' Campsite are both listed on the South Australian Heritage Register.[7][8] References1. ^{{cite web |title=Search results for ‘Ooldea, LOCU' with the following datasets being selected - 'Suburbs and Localities', 'Local Government Areas', 'SA Government Regions’, ‘Railways’ and 'Gazetteer' |url= http://location.sa.gov.au/viewer/?map=roads&x=131.83053&y=-30.46243&z=13&uids=19,11,20,105,134&pinx=131.836980&piny=-30.457730&pinTitle=Location&pinText=Ooldea,+Locu |website=Location SA Map Viewer|publisher=Government of South Australia|accessdate=5 August 2018}} 2. ^{{cite web|title=District of Giles Background Profile|url= http://www.ecsa.sa.gov.au/component/edocman/?task=document.download&id=500&Itemid=0 |publisher=ELECTORAL COMMISSION SA|accessdate=20 August 2015}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Federal electoral division of Grey, boundary gazetted 16 December 2011|url= http://www.aec.gov.au/profiles/sa/files/2011/2011-aec-a4-map-sa-grey.pdf |publisher=Australian Electoral Commission|accessdate=20 August 2015}} 4. ^{{cite news |url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article93864482 |title=Memorials To Mrs. Daisy Bates. |newspaper=The Chronicle |location=Adelaide |date=20 December 1951 |accessdate=16 February 2015 |page=33 |publisher=National Library of Australia}} 5. ^{{cite news|url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article27457851|title=THE LAST LINK.|date=18 October 1917|newspaper=The West Australian|accessdate=17 October 2017|issue=4,850|location=Western Australia|volume=XXXIII,|page=4|via=National Library of Australia}} 6. ^{{Cite news|title=Celebrating rail's unite nation, 100 years on|last=Taylor|first=Paige|date=17 October 2017|work=The Australian|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=}} 7. ^{{cite web | url=http://apps.planning.sa.gov.au/HeritageSearch/HeritageItem.aspx?p_heritageno=4 | title=Ooldea Soak and former United Aborigines Mission Site (designated place of archaeological significance) | publisher=Department of Environment, Water and Natural Resources | work=South Australian Heritage Register | accessdate=12 February 2016}} 8. ^{{cite web | url=http://apps.planning.sa.gov.au/HeritageSearch/HeritageItem.aspx?p_heritageno=1 | title=Daisy Bates' Campsite | publisher=Department of Environment, Water and Natural Resources | work=South Australian Heritage Register | accessdate=12 February 2016}} External links{{Commons category-inline|Ooldea, South Australia}}
