Landline is featuring, for the first time on television, a programme-length documentary on one of the great contributors to our pioneering past - the riverboats of the Murray River. The story covers one of the most colourful events of our Centerary of Federation celebrations: a memorable journey down the mighty Murray - from its source in the Kosciusko high country to the sea at the town of Goolwa in South Australia. The flotilla which took part in this epic trip included more than 200 paddle steamers and riverboats - some more than 100 years old.
