Traveling on interesting things makes for interesting travel. Train. Bus. Ferry. Everything!
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN IT ALL GOES WRONG? Australia’s TILT TRAIN (and bus) from Brisbane to Rockhampton!
This week I take the fastest train in Australia, the Tilt Train, from Brisbane to Rockhampton. Well, as we all know things don’t always go to plan when you travel, and things certainly didn’t this day, with the first half of the journey being a replacement bus!

This week I head on an epic 10 hour journey, 2.5 hours up the road as I head from Newcastle to Sydney, taking public busses (and a ferry). There is a direct train line, but that’s too easy. 8 busses and a ferry is much much stupider.

"A train nerds version of a Taylor Swift concert" I like it
What’s the point of it though ? Is it cheaper to build tracks then a road just for buses ?
Sydney has the T-Way
Great video Josh. What was the name of the Hotel you stayed in at Rockhampton?
It was called Denison boutique hotel!
Any toilets on board? Taking one soon
From cambridge how can we go to the university of Cambridge
nice video! Melbourne train station looks pretty much like Zürich.
Typical shithouse qld Public transport. Thats why i fly or drive, not worth depending on our shit infrastructure. Id just hire a car instead of doing a shit bus. 8 + hours with no facilities or toilet and bullshit snacks. Worst case. It personifies qld the tilt train, Rails too narrow and it tilts over and off the tracks if it goes anywhere near its proper design speed. Too slow, boring and a waste of money.
Did you even watch the video? He specificall said the train journey section was quite good. A tree falling on the tracks is almost certainly not the fault of QR. It's an issue that occurs all over the world, even in the best public transport systems
😮
The replacement bus driver provided all the entertainment on board
Definitely 100% I would take it and I still do

Glad you liked it!
Poor guy! At least they kept you informed. I bet this would be hell if it happened in NSW. I would have NEVER got out of that spa!
Honestly the driveless part doesn't surprise me since most system are turning automatic these days. And usb outlets same, they are gonna do it in paris line 15.
Wow thank you I’m here now
Hi Josh, I was wondering what equipment you use to produce your impressive videos
Just a go pro and my phone 🙂
@@JoshGoesSlowthanks mate, keep up the great work
I think someone is a bit anal retentive because they had to travel by bus is the problem here.
Usually train cancelled because track work
Such a shame you didn't get to enjoy the full ride on the tilt train. I've been on it a few times between the Sunshine Coast and Rockhampton and it's a brilliant service. I always try for First Class but it does book up pretty quickly so you have to be quick to get it. Economy is good but you it feels a bit cramped up when it's full of passengers. It only takes 30 mins longer to travel on the train then it does to drive up to Rocky.
I'd love to be able to go on buses and trains just for fun (and seemingly have it paid for by your fans)! All the videos I have seen so far are super nice, and they go at a reasonable pace - not too long and not too short. Good job, and I hope to see more! Also, I found the bus driver pretty funny.
Yeah, the bus driver was great!
Good vid
When was this filmed. I know their was trackwork north of Bowen hills station all the way to Gympie north
@electro_sykes it was early October.
Once again, compared to many other countries, Australia just shows how far behind we are in public transport, generally. Whilst the train was decent, and of course stuff happens in regard to the tree, plenty of other countries, in this case I'll pick on many parts of Asia, have significantly better long distance buses, including proper business class style ones. Whilst I can appreciate the difficultly in arranging a bus service at the last minute, expecting people to spend 6 hours in a commuter bus is just not on.
Melbourne and Brisbane are harder is get around but Sydney is more familiar
6 hours in a bus is nothing. I take the bus from Melbourne to Sydney and it's way longer. Toughen up.
Why would you go to Rockhampton?!
Moo cows...lots of very tasty moo cows..😊
To be fair, I only spent 12 hours there 🤣
Could you please do the Sydney to Orange coach with Australia Wide Coaches? Nobody has done it yet
Definitely got a character of a driver there, which some might find annoying. I do like it when the bus drivers have personality, better than the ones you only hear from when someone fucks up. Got lucky the time I took the longreach train, it'd rained the week before (as is rarer out that way) and the people on the return trip before I went out got bused the whole way. That would've been hell, but of course it meant that the train itself hadn't made it all the way back to brisbane in time. So got the rockhampton tilt train, then swapped across to the longreach train, which had to sit at the station for a few hours (because it normally goes through there about midnight, so it couldn't go early because timetable) so got to go to sleep without the train moving I know this adds nothing to the video, but I do have a habit of just adding my own little similar stories to these things 🙃
@@AnonyDave I took the spirit of Queensland from cairns to Brisbane 2 nights before this trip. The night after (the night before this trip) it got stopped at 3am and everyone got busses the rest of the way due to the tree my train was stopped for. So it could have been a lot worse.
Massive respect to the service staff at QLD Rail. Absolute legends. Great video, Josh. Hope you enjoyed the spa haha
Yeah, they were great, and yes I enjoyed the spa 🤣
Last December went to Casino first class with my parents. Train broke down at Taree and they put us on a coach and we’re not together spent nearly 5 hours on a coach to Casino I made a complaint and I got $64 back out of the 3 of us
Again another banger!!! ❤ Could you do a day trip video again? I especially love the Bathurst one where U r just there to chill and have fun!;
Maybe one day!
I would have thought they should have given a full refund or at least an 80% refund of your ticket price.
They still got me to where I was going, with only a 2 hour delay. It could have been a lot worse!
very good , Thank you
Thank you, too!
Got it Josh 🎉🎉thank you though 😊
Thank you so much ! 😊Are there any ways from Sydney to Melbourne if I would like to travel from Sydney to Melbourne by train? Thank you 😊 🎉🎉
Great video! Thanks so much
This is actually really cool way to see other parts of a country that you wouldn't normally see as a tourist! Great video 🔥
