Hi! I'm travelling tomorrow with a guitar. Did you take it with you? Is the luggage check strict like an airport? Thanks so much for the video ❤ super useful!!
Hi I liked how quiet it was! And I do have a full Canberra episode here on my channel so you can see everything I did in one day. I don’t think I can attach the link to the video here but it you go to my channel and look at my latest videos you’ll find it 🙂 thank you for watching 🤩
Pity about the derailment holding you up on your forward journey. On the return, the rabbit was at Joppa Junction, so one suspects you were held whilst a freight train changed crew and cleared Goulburn. The trains are painfully slow between Goulburn and Sydney especially, and the Melbourne train was an hour faster in each direction than it is now when the XPT took over 30-odd years ago. Poor track and alignment doesn't help.
Thank you for your insights! Painfully slow describes the journey perfectly 😅 one can only hope Aussie trains will get an upgrade soon. Thank you so much for watching my slow journey ☺️
No worries. I'm a former railway employee who has ridden the Melbourne to Sydney line regularly for the last 30-plus years, so I'm well aware of the shortcomings and the operational side of things. That being said, rail is a (mostly) relaxing way to travel, and I happen to be taking the day XPT from Melbourne on Wednesday. Here's hoping no troubles. Unfortunately on January 12th, the day train didn't depart Melbourne until 10:30am, due to being delayed by signal failures in northeast Victoria as a result of a copper theft.
I agree it is relaxing too BUT still it could be improved...thank you for sharing your knowledge! And I just booked my next trip to Canberra, this time first class because I'm quite curious what the difference will be!
XPT is a sad depressing joke last carriage refurb was 2008 slow very noisy 1st Class well yeah its essential (but crap) seeing central after 4 hours of constant squeaking, groaning and rattling of the carriage I thought I was transported back in time... apart from that its great
It's worth noting that to have good railways a country must have high population densities .. of which Australia does not have. That train to Canberra is a disgrace.
Your videos are great! Would definitely love to visit Australia soon. By the way, I am a girlie video editor, I would love to help you edit your videos to make them more fun & more engaging in this community, plus I can make an interesting thumbnail for you. If you're interested, where can I reach you?
The toiler review was the peak of this video. 10/10
Haha thank you 🫣😂
I love Canberra. Its a beautiful place. Shame that the train used from Sydney to Canberra is ancient and uncomfortable. I'll take the bus next time.
Yes Canberra is very laid back and green. I made a video about my day in Canberra and it shows how much I liked it 😎
Australia Day Today!!!!! 🎉🎉🎉🥳
Yes! 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Happy Australia Day to you all!!!! I thought it’s a good day to upload a very Australian video! Thank you all for watching and have a wonderful day ❤️
Hi, I enjoyed your trip & the bunny! Thank you for the mobile/ battery information,that’s something you wouldn’t think of. Elaine from Queensland.
Haha yes the bunny was my highlight! And yes being a power bank for NSW trains. Glad you liked it, thank you for watching 💚
Mediocrity is the name of the game with NSW country trains. Stuck in the 90s.
I agree...hopefully we'll get an upgrade soon because it's slightly embarrassing especially compared to Japan or Europe...but thank you for watching!
@@NonStopTravelVV Can't agree it's stuck in the 90's - I'd put it more like the 50's.
@@doubledee9675😂😂😂 t
Queensland and Western Australian trains are the fastest and most comfortable.
Oh thank you! I will try more train routes soon…it can only be better 😅

You can definitely bring it! Nobody asked me anything I just got on the train with my bag and my instrument and it was all good! Safe travels!
How Did You Like Canberra 🤔. My Home State Is Good & Crap. What Did You End Up Doing In Canberra 🤔

Interesting from German perspective!
