We recently travelled on the Overland from Adelaide to Melb, and had a great time on this spotlessly clean, comfy train. Plenty of room to move about, great views, Coffee was fabulous, we couldn't find a coffee in Melbourne to match that! Great hostess, Jacky, funny lady, all the staff were great and very helpful. I'll be training asap again soon!

I have travelled on the Overland service many times, and each time is better than the last. Its just a great way to travel, and I will certainly be travelling many more times. Thanks.

As a person with a disability it was important to know that I would have the JOURNEY of a LIFETIME Wow what can I say from my written queries prior to booking to the AWESOME trip and staff who treated every passenger like a King or Queen what more could you ask for. Well done to all the staff. You are not only great ambassadors for Great Southern Rail but for Australia as a whole. Well done. We will sure be travelling with you again.

The Overland trip was absolutely wonderful, very relaxing, and interesting seeing the countryside from the train instead of the same scenery when you drive to Melbourne. The service was great and the seats were very comfortable. Would recommend to anyone if you have the day to spare to travel to Melbourne.

Our choice to take the Overland instead of another plane was the best decision! We traveled Dec. 1 from Melbourne to Adelaide and had an awesome time, especially made that way by train manager Jacky Pampling-Jones. She was great with our 10 year old son, treating him like a king! We appreciate her kindness and fun personality. Thanks Jacky!

What a great way to see Australia, and no driving stress.

My sister and myself travelled on The Overland to Melbourne on the 9th June - it was GREAT as usual. Excellent staff and facilities and the meal was great. We came home on the 14th June arriving in Adelaide refreshed after a great sleep.
I cannot wait for my next train journey, hopefully in September when the MIGHTY ADELAIDE CROWS will be contesting the finals.
Keep up the good work Great Southern Rail we luv ya!!!!!

Travelled on the daylight service from Adelaide to Melbourne a couple of weeks ago with my vehicle having driven 3500 kms to get to Adelaide. Great service, friendly staff, good meals, restful journey. Do it , you will be glad you did.

I would like to thank all the crew for an excellent job on The Overland on Grand Final weekend. I had to work in Melbourne that weekend and was treated like a celebrity by all the crew on board The Overland.
Good on ya all and hope to see you all in the future.
P.S I would definitely recomend The Overland service to Melbourne to everyone.
