The last time I took this train from Melbourne to Adelaide was in 1988 with a school friend of mine. I remember seeing the endless flat grassy plains and blue skies and thinking how strange it was and not an Australia I knew because I was a boy from the green and wet cane fields of North Queensland and had never seen such flat dryness. That particular journey has stuck in my mind all these decades.

My Dad took the train frequently during the ‘80s when he was studying at Melbourne Uni and went back to see his family in SA. Back then it was an overnight service and ran more frequently due to having state government funding, now it’s not really worth travelling on unless your in a town in between or you have time to kill due to the availability of flights.

I grabbed the Overland from Melbourne back to Adelaide back in the late 90s or early 2000s, can't remember exactly when. It was far less comfortable and I had a change-over to another train, no idea why or where. I love the idea of train travel compared to driving or flying. Less convenient for business, but far better for your mental health I think. Even easier now that we live in a world with endless portable entertainment. If Australia ever got its act together and put down a decent high speed rail system between major cities, I'd be travelling.

After WWII, my Dad was Station Manager at Bordertown for a while. As a youth, I travelled many times on The Overland in a sleeper berth. Before the existence of Australian National Railways, the preceding South Australian Railways and Victorian Railways jointly ran the train. At Bordertown, they use to change the locomotives motives to reflect the actual state railway.

When I was a child I remember seeing the Overland in Adelaide City Railway station... As it used to terminate there before they converted the line gauge. This was in the late 70s. It was longer then and seemed so exotic. It used to be red. There was another train called the Bluebird. I can't remember where that went.

One of the trips was overnight when the train had a full length dining car and sleepers. The other two trips, if I remember correctly, were during the day. While living in Melbourne I developed a keen interest in cricket. One of my trips to Adelaide was to visit the Donald Bradman museum, which if I remember correctly is located at the Adelaide Oval. One of the most beautiful ovals in Australia. Unusual for an American!

I don't think driving is so bad. It really depends on the person. I prefer driving holidays, because you can visit places wouldn't otherwise by plane, or even train. Also you can take as much luggage as you please. My wife and I will be driving to Melbourne, from Central West NSW, in a couple of weeks before boarding the Spirit of Tasmania. We'll be taking a 'back way' (and thus avoiding the Hume), and going through Wagga, then Echuca, overnight in Echuca, having a short riverboat tour of the Murray, then drive our way to Melbourne for the evening ferry trip. Thank you for sharing this trip, and, AFAIK, it is the cheapest journey you can have on a Journey Beyond service, especially if you're in Adelaide or Melbourne.

I remember back in 1987 when the Overland was an overnight sleeper train, not a daytime train. Also the Southern Cross station didn't look anything like it is now. I spent the entire month of May 1987 traveling by train in Australia. There was a direct Sydney-Alice Springs called 'The Alice' that was 1/wk sleeper only. I had the deluxe compartment on the outbound trip as I went straight to train from my 20 hr flight from Vancouver. Another train no longer here was the 1/wk 'The Queenslander' sleeper only Brisbane-Cairns. I got a 1 month Rail pass & only had to pay $33/night to upgrade to roomette on most trains except the dlx comp noted above.

Flying is just so common in Australia... Adelaide to melbourne is < 90 minutes and really solid. Train travel became seen as a luxury to-do... you took the train to enjoy the journey, not get from point A to point B. Hence why most of the interstate train services are dying. Edit - the viability of interstate train travel is dependent on investing in high-speed rail. I live in Canberra and have to travel to Melbourne regularly for work. A high speed rail connection between Sydney and Melbourne via Canberra would be incredible for me and those I work with.

I thoroughly enjoyed watching your video!, I have done the Sydney to Melbourne trip by train twice and loved the scenery!. I've always wanted to check out Adelaide it looks so beautiful and you've inspired me to do it!. Not right now however I WILL do it !!. It Also looks like first class is quite a enjoyable experience. The food actually looked Ok too!, Clean servings and good to see the service staff wearing gloves!. Do they have vegan or vegetarian options for the people who don't eat pork?. Anyway the video I thought was well made and I like how there was little bits of history along the way!, Thanks!.

Went on this train about 20 years ago and remember it well. It took about 10 hours and it was impossible to sleep because of the noise and vibrations. Would never do an overnight trip again after that. Otherwise it was comfortable and an inexpensive way to travel from Melbourne to Adelaide and back again. Thanks for posting this video it bought back some nice memories.
