The train is made up of 9 carriages and includes two power carriages, a baggage carriage, two RailBed carriages, three Economy Seating carriages and a Café carriage.

As it’s an overnight train, there are two options for accommodation – RailBed and Premium Economy.

The Premium Economy carriages have four seats per row, two on each side of the aisle. The leather seats are spacious and can be reclined to a comfortable 30 degrees. You’ll also find overhead lockers to store luggage, a powerpoint for charging electronics, a reading light, and a knee blanket.

An Australian first, the revolutionary RailBed is a spacious and comfortable seat by day and a lie-flat bed by night – very similar to a Business Class seat on a plane in both style and design.

There are three seats/pods per row, making the single seat perfect for solo travellers. Enjoy the extra leg room and comfortable 35 degree recline.

Other extras include a complimentary welcome pack with an assortment of toiletries, a handy fold-out table, a drink holder, a reading light, a 240-volt powerpoint for charging electronics, and a footrest.

In both the Premium Economy and RailBed carriages, you’ll find an entertainment system in the back of the headrest of the seat in front of you, the same as you’d find on a plane. All of which feature a variety of good movies, TV shows, music, and podcasts to keep you entertained into the evening.

During the day, the scenery is incredibly picturesque as you journey through small country towns, tropical rainforests, sugar cane fields and banana plantations. So, all you need to do is sit back, relax, and soak up the glorious passing landscapes.

On-board menus offer a range of options, from light refreshments such as fresh salads, sandwiches and wraps, and a selection of hot cooked dishes, ranging from traditional roasts to pastas and vegetarian dishes.

The Galley Car is open 24-hours and can also be accessed by people in the Railbed section if extra snacks or drinks are required. And a complimentary wine, beer or juice is served with lunch and dinner.
