Rail Journeys
There's still something magical and romantic about train
journeys. They hark back to the times when the adventure
of travel was in the travel itself.
Today the carriages are comfortable and air-conditioned
and you'll find lounges, bars and fine dining in the restaurant
and buffet cars.
Various classes of travel are available with grades of
comfort from coach class seats to first class sleepers
with private bathrooms.
Hop aboard and enjoy an epic Australian rail journey.
It's a great way to travel between two holiday centres
as you relax in comfort and watch this great continent
unfold.
