Our Rail Division, previously known as Great Southern Rail ("GSR") operates Australia's iconic rail journeys, The Ghan, Indian Pacific, The Overland and Excellent Southern.

There are very few global journeys considered national treasures, but our trains are, without question, iconic Australian experiences. From the moment our guests (and potentially you!) step aboard these legendary trains, you can feel it – a spirit of adventure and a sense of something very special about to unfold.

In Coober Pedy and Geelong, coach drivers play an essential role in facilitating off-train excursions for travellers on The Ghan and Great Southern train journeys in guiding them in exploring all the iconic attractions and hidden gems in these regions. Their expertise ensures guests can immerse themselves in the local culture and stunning landscapes, creating unforgettable experiences during their journey.
