There’s something special about seeing regional New South Wales by heritage rail. As the train winds through rolling farmland, country towns, vineyards and spectacular coastlines, the journey becomes every bit as memorable as the places along the way.

In 2027, discover the Golden West, North Coast and Riverina Rail Tours, each offering its own perspective on the landscapes, stories and character of regional NSW. With thoughtful Off Train Experiences, good food and the gentle rhythm of the rails, there’s plenty of time to settle in and savour the journey.

Our 2027 journeys are now on sale. Find out more and start planning your next rail adventure at www.vintagerailjourneys.com.au

There’s a quiet romance to slow rail travel. As our fluted silver carriages glint in the sun and glide through regional New South Wales, the rhythm of the railway invites you to slow down and savour the journey.

Beyond the window, country towns, rolling farmland and rugged landscapes unfold at an unhurried pace, while shared meals, good conversation and the gentle sway of the train create moments to remember. Because sometimes the beauty of travel is found not just in where you go, but in the stories, scenery and connections discovered along the way.
