XPT over the Blue Mountains | Sydney to Dubbo by train

Find out what it's like to travel across the picturesque Blue Mountains on one of Australia's best known passenger trains, the XPT. Short for eXpress Passenger Train, the XPT is celebrating its 40th birthday in 2022. This video captures the journey between Sydney (Central) and Dubbo on the Central West XPT. I take you on a tour of this iconic train, sample the onboard catering and show you some incredible scenery as we cross the Great Dividing Range, and learn about landmarks along the way. Compare the first class and economy class seats to help decide whether it's worth paying the extra for first class. Travelling return between Sydney and Dubbo seven days a week, the XPT is an enjoyable way to see the countryside. Fares and bookings: https://transportnsw.info/regional-bo...
