You will be surprised how many younger people are now travelling on Australian luxury trains. My son (26) and I (49) traveled on the Ghan from Adelaide to Alice Springs in April 2021, we had a large number of younger 20s somethings on the train.
@@iris657 I'm a chain smoker went on the Ghan in April Adelaide to Alice. It is a long trip but while you are on the train drinking eating etc you don't feeling sick or withdrawals. I wasn't wanting a smoke while the train was moving but as soon as it stopped I was dying for one lol.
This was the best 38 minutes, I spent on TH-cam today. So very informative & soothing. Rory, you never disappoint. More power to you & safe travels for June & July 2021.
My great great grandfather Absalom Tonkin is on that memorial. And my great grandfather Frank Tonkin used to be a steam tram driver in Broken Hill, before they closed the trams and they had to move to Sydney. Fantastic video, very enjoyable to watch during lockdown
I'm thinking about a month long trip Down Under on January next year. The plan is to take this train across the continent (Perth-Sydney) and then travel up the East Coast from Sydney up to Cairns and the Great Barrier Reef. Also going to spend some time in Singapore along the way because why not.
I really appreciate you taking the time out to make this review. Taking a trip on the Indian Pacific is something I'd like to experience one day and apart from Paul Lucas' video from a year ago there's been a surprising absence of in-depth videos here about the journey.
I took the Indian Pacific from Sydney to Perth in November 2018 using the Gold Single service as well. I flew in from the States and went straight to Central Station to catch the train. A really great experience. The stop at Rawlinna to dine under the stars is magical. Hopefully you will be able to complete the journey to Perth in the future. Watching your video was really enjoyable.
This is not only one of your best reviews, but one of the best travel reviews I’ve seen. Outstanding. Inspired me to travel on this train now. Thank you!
Thanks to the Indian Pacific staff for allowing you to take us through to see the Platinum service. I am heading to Australia in 2022 and am eyeing Indian Pacific. I took the Ghan before COVID (loved it).
I’ve binged so many of your videos recently. This looked like a great trip and your fellow passengers were lovely too. Thanks for producing the content. 👍
What a journey! This looks like the best thing ever in the world. Now whenever you travel you're now getting spotted more. In just a month it's grown so much. What a train and what great passengers. 10/10
Great presentation Rory. Once again you've done notably more than just film the train. You've captured the passenger experience, and done it very well indeed. Liked some of those editing transitions too plus the solid background behind your written information makes for much easier reading. Top marks for allowing the scenery speak for itself. Continue living the dream! 🥂
I agree with other people that this is your best travel report Rory so far. The joy of travelling on the Indian Pacific has clearly come through. Anyone who is thinking of traveling on the Indian Pacific will have a good overview of experience which is so much more than being a passenger on this train.
I did the full Perth to Sydney trip in 2007 .... the trip is fantastic and the train has been upgraded a lot since then ... makes me want to do it again!
Thankyou to all the Staff and fellow passengers that welcomed Rory and helped make this video so special. Looks like you ended up being very popular and it is so well deserved!! You continue to suprise me with the exceptional quality of content and the detailed explanation of the experience. Thankyou for sharing 👍
I’m a train driver and love train travel. Haven’t done the G or the IP. But this was so well put together I’m looking at booking a trip! Cheers for the great and informative video!
I actually appreciated the way that Generation treated you and were not discriminative. It shows that not all Aussies are rude.... PS I love your videos. After Covid... Come do some sight seeing in Newcastle
This is a fine review video, you can't find anything else that give so much details on this train, right down to anything you need to know, easily beat all of em! Keep up the good job!
I’ve watched this a few times now and it is by far my favourite video of yours to date. It looks like you had a lot of fun. The passengers are warm and friendly and the staff engaging. I really want to make this trip now! X
What a fabulous review! Did not get bored once. I love how friendly everyone was, and how the passengers and even staff would recognise you and say "Rory!". What a great onboard community. I saw the Indian Pacific arriving at Central, Sydeny a few months back, and I got to see the train get split in two and one half get shunted to another platform. It was so cool! Btw, I have always been curious to see a review on The Ghan, maybe future review idea? Thanks for this!
Perfect!!! You've done a great trip & I feel as if I am travelling with you while seeing your video. Surprised to see the service & the food onboard the train were exceptionally good. It's worth the money. This luxury train will definitely be on my bucket list. Thanks for sharing.
I too travelled in Gold single from Sydney to Perth in 2015 but unfortunately we didn't make Perth due to a derailment so had to return overnight to Adelaide and catch a flight from there to Perth. But despite all this I loved the journey all the same. Last year I was supposed to travel on the Ghan from Darwin to Adelaide then on the Overland from Adelaide to Melbourne but thanks to covid this never happened. Im now hopefull that I'll be able to travel back over to Australia very soon. Being a solo traveller I thought the journey would be a bit daunting but couldn't have been more wrong the staff where fantastic and made me very welcome plus seating me with other people and being introduced to my fellow passengers made the journey so enjoyable and along with the stunning views of the Outback and the Nullarbor was incredible. Also went wine tasting in the Barossa Valley. This Journey is a must for anybody that's thinking of doing this you won't regret it. Its defiantly a Journey I would do again in an heart beat.
I just clicked out of pure curiosity, did not expect to be hooked! This was so wholesome and fun! Sent it to a bunch of my friends as well who all loved it.
I can see the dedication you put towards constructing this video with very detailed research and filming. You're on the right path as I really enjoy watching your video. Keep up the good work :)
Rory, thanks again for your reviews. I have recently been on the Ghan and Indian Pacific (in gold twin and singles) and would like to share an idea. In the gold twin rooms, the upper bunks require a degree of nimbleness to reach which is not always suited to those elderly or otherwise less agile patrons. Also, as you've observed, the showers in the gold twin are also less suited to those who are not as mobile or stable as they would like to be, the showers in the roomette cars are much more spacious. Therefore, maybe patrons who are partners should consider 2 single cabins, and they should be able to get them opposite each other. (That way, at least one person will be facing forward) Most people I have met tend to spend a large amount of time in the lounge car anyway. I also heard criticism of the "rockiness" of the train across central NSW. These tracks are quite old, so please do not expect the smoothness that you may encounter is other parts of Aus or the world.
We did the trip in gold twin ten years ago, one of us reasonably nimble but the other definitely not. The more nimble of us took the top bunk so that wasn’t an issue. The bathrooms have been upgraded since our trip; back then they had the stainless steel drop down basin and toilet so when they were folded up out of the way the shower area was quite roomy and with the flat front on the basin and toilet unit there were no protrusions to bump against and there was a grab bar if you needed it. Other than that it was the same fabulous service, meals and camaraderie that Rory experienced on this trip.
Absolutely fantastic review Rory - really comprehensive and also conveyed the onboard experience so well. Hope you get to go on to Perth...fingers crossed.
I commenced my working life in 1970 and after a year of working, my first holiday was on the Indian Pacific - First Class - Sydney to Perth and Return - $162.50. I was only 17 and travelled by myself and there were only 2 classes of travel back then, First and Second Class. It is only comparatively recently that the carriages have been upgraded. The First Class bar and lounge area took up a whole carriage, whilst the Second Class bar and lounge area took half a carriage, with " day seating " the other half. The train had extended stops at Broken Hill, Port Pirie, Kalgoorlie and Perth. There was a group of country NSW ladies who travelled at the same as me and all they did all day was played cards in the First Class lounge. On the return trip, there was a national rail strike from memory and the train staff voted on whether or not to continue to Sydney from Broken Hill, as the staff changed at each state border. They voted to continue and we were the only train travelling in NSW at the time and still had signal stops, lol. Even though I was only 17, I still enjoyed alcohol as everyone thought I was older. I still have all the slides I took of the journey. I cannot believe the cost of the Indian Pacific these days, but if money isn't an issue, do it. Thank you Rory, great vid, keep up the good work.
That would be a very interesting subject to hear more about. I am guessing that in 1970 the Indian Pacific was still a normal train as opposed to a luxury tourist train and things were more basic.
@@Ben-xe8ps Thanks Ben. Whilst the train was less than a year old, it was rather basic. The only thing included was the food, drinks were extra. Because I was the only single occupant in the carriage, I was told they just put on a " 2nd " class carriage and put down what was effectively a carpet hall runner down the corridor. The trip was three days to Perth, I stayed three days in Perth and then 3 days back. What seems only a few years ago, my sister and brother-in-law caught the train from Perth to Sydney and when I picked them up at Central, nothing had changed. The train celebrated 50 years in 2020.
I love how quickly the other passengers became friendly with you and interactive when you were filming. I bet you had a great time. Also, Earl Grey with milk. Very few enjoy a "London Fog", I think more people should try it. If available, add a dash of vanilla.
Rory I just wanted to thank you on this video as you just gave me a great idea to go on this train. I am planning to go on to Adelaide as you did and then fly to Sydney when we are allowed. This is the best thing I learned today, thank you very much for uploading this video
Thanks for this video Rory. It’s so thorough and very interesting. Makes me want to travel! 🙂 Your videos are so professionally done I felt like I was watching a travel show on tv! Wishing you all the best with your channel and future travels. 👍🏽
“Goodnight gorgeous young man”…..(19:43) Ooh la la - looks like some of the oldies were getting a bit flirty with you! 😜 Anyhow, thanks for an immersive review. Truly felt like I was part of the trip from the beginning. Hoping for it to be a journey my partner and I will personally experience once domestic travel safely returns with some definite certainty. Stay safe and well! 🤞🙏 🚞 🛤
Amazing video! You went into amazing detail and the behind the scenes of walking through the carriages gives you the feeling you are onboard. Great video Rory, I'd hope to do this train journey some day!
Lovely, complete review. It seemed like fun and I loved the shot you took of the South Australian landscape through your glass of champagne. Says it all about the feel of the trip, I reckon it would look good in the Indian Pacific brochure.
Great video showing every aspect of the trip. I liked that you showed a lot about the social side, important for people planning to travel alone. You are obviously a very sociable guy! So it worked, full marks! As well as heaps of info about accommodation, food (my favourite!) also. Good work! 👍
Oooh, I'm excited to see this one. One of the few australian routes I've not been on (but for various reasons, have never been on any outside australia 😆). One day, one day.
You might have just convinced the younger folks that luxury trains aren’t just for the oldies! Saving up for this one for sure!
sitting in the lounge all day with an endless supply of complimentary booze? sign me up. though i assume by law there is no where on board you can smoke so thatd be a deal breaker for me on such a long journey. only manage the longer 8-14 hour countrylink trips due to the more frequent stops meaning a quick few minutes outside.
You will be surprised how many younger people are now travelling on Australian luxury trains. My son (26) and I (49) traveled on the Ghan from Adelaide to Alice Springs in April 2021, we had a large number of younger 20s somethings on the train.
@@iris657 I'm a chain smoker went on the Ghan in April Adelaide to Alice. It is a long trip but while you are on the train drinking eating etc you don't feeling sick or withdrawals. I wasn't wanting a smoke while the train was moving but as soon as it stopped I was dying for one lol.
This is a dream of mine and I'm 19. 😁
At those prices? To live in a shoebox? Lmao
All the passengers waving, smiling and saying hello is such a happy a thing to see :)
You treated him like one of your own something I'd never get
One passenger at 15:07 was not so happy seeing Rory with his camera... ;)
He was joking haha
At 16:11 and 16:12 the waiter definitely worked on the walk! It was just a graceful eye catching!
As a chef I saw him stick his finger in the bowl of soup
I love how all friendly everyone was. Must’ve been a fun experience
Especially go-go lmfao
Everyones friendly when you have 7grand to blow on a train
That's very rare
This was the best 38 minutes, I spent on TH-cam today. So very informative & soothing. Rory, you never disappoint. More power to you & safe travels for June & July 2021.
Thank you so much ☺️
@@RoryDing Rory ding ding 😂😂😂😂
Gogo seems like a great guy! He really brings sunshine with him!
I am a Broken Hill local and this was the best video on the trip from Sydney to the Hill I have seen, I loved it.
Thank you ☺️
You have reached half a million views. Time to get back on the train! More awesome reviews please.
It’s so nice they allowed you to film the platinum area, I’m sure the staff were busy prior to departure! That’s some great service!
My great great grandfather Absalom Tonkin is on that memorial. And my great grandfather Frank Tonkin used to be a steam tram driver in Broken Hill, before they closed the trams and they had to move to Sydney.
Fantastic video, very enjoyable to watch during lockdown
I've been on the journey to Perth from Sydney, it's something every Aussie should experience. It's fantastic

I’m convinced….I need to do a travel around Aussie on the train!!!
I watched one video yesterday and now I’m hooked on these!
Same
They're rather addictive + traveling vicariously
Rory has something special going on ....he is a natural story teller with a great eye for important details.
They really are addictive and he is so well spoken as well

Nice! Enjoy the trip 😬
Is the trip still ongoing with lockdown?
@@k.vn.k no it’s not, I’m not sure when I’m going now, looks like early next year maybe
Covid!

best travel reviews on the internet!!
Superb review Rory I'm going to do this trip after listening.
I’m from Syd but went to Broken Hill for placement for 2 weeks. One of the best experiences of my life!!
15:08 oh oh oh Rory what are you doing that again, 😂
Hahaha 🤣
Very professional presentation. Quite informative and very well spoken. 10 out of 10.

Amazing! My mouth us watering! Good researching also! Thank you! OMG another serving! You are good with people! I need that skill!
Thank you 😊
Wonderful coverage of this iconic train. Thank you for sharing the experience Rory!
Great commentary Rory, I've become addicted to your channel!

Another great video Rory!
Love knowing what the interstate train experiences are like! Appreciate the effort, time and money spent to share the experience!
Rory, thanks again for your reviews.
I have recently been on the Ghan and Indian Pacific (in gold twin and singles) and would like to share an idea.
In the gold twin rooms, the upper bunks require a degree of nimbleness to reach which is not always suited to those elderly or otherwise less agile patrons. Also, as you've observed, the showers in the gold twin are also less suited to those who are not as mobile or stable as they would like to be, the showers in the roomette cars are much more spacious.
Therefore, maybe patrons who are partners should consider 2 single cabins, and they should be able to get them opposite each other. (That way, at least one person will be facing forward) Most people I have met tend to spend a large amount of time in the lounge car anyway.
I also heard criticism of the "rockiness" of the train across central NSW. These tracks are quite old, so please do not expect the smoothness that you may encounter is other parts of Aus or the world.
We did the trip in gold twin ten years ago, one of us reasonably nimble but the other definitely not. The more nimble of us took the top bunk so that wasn’t an issue. The bathrooms have been upgraded since our trip; back then they had the stainless steel drop down basin and toilet so when they were folded up out of the way the shower area was quite roomy and with the flat front on the basin and toilet unit there were no protrusions to bump against and there was a grab bar if you needed it. Other than that it was the same fabulous service, meals and camaraderie that Rory experienced on this trip.
@@miniveedub I couldn't agree more with you, the trips were fantastic and I would/will do them again if possible.
Again Rory you have out done your self!!! Amazing trip report... Thank you for sharing it with us!!! :):):)
Early! Awesome vid 😎
Great video, Rory. Wonderful to see all the detail. Many thanks.
Loved the whole video, very friendly staff. The video is at 300k+ views,waiting for the gold twin cabin review
Great work, mate!
I hope you get the half a million views. Been watching all your train videos
Brilliant stuff, Rory. Can't wait to watch the Adelaide-Perth leg next.
Absolutely fantastic review Rory - really comprehensive and also conveyed the onboard experience so well. Hope you get to go on to Perth...fingers crossed.
Great video Rory, loved it. Looking forward to the 2nd part.
