The Overland

Full Day

The Overland was Australia’s first inter-capital passenger train servicing guests from Adelaide, Melbourne, and the regional towns in between for over 135 years, as she makes her way between the vibrant capital cities of South Australia and Victoria.

The much-loved daylight journey runs twice weekly in each direction at a relaxed pace, encouraging guests to sit back and enjoy the evolving countryside views. With a daylight service between two vibrant cities, enjoy a relaxing and unique journey, while savouring the creature comforts and romance of rail.

There is nothing quite like travelling by rail, and The Overland operates a day-long service running between Melbourne and Adelaide in both directions. On board, you’ll experience a comfortable journey as you watch the diverse landscapes outside your window, from rugged mallee scrub to fields of green and gold.

With comfortable semi-reclining seats, generous legroom, up to 50kg of luggage, a range of dining options, and dedicated hospitality attendants, whether you choose Red Standard or Red Premium Service, you’re choosing an effortless and relaxing way to embark on your interstate adventure.

The Overland departs on Sundays and Thursdays from Adelaide and on Mondays and Fridays from Melbourne.
