The trip

W hen you travel "Queenslander Class" on the Sunlander, you will be treated to a first class
cruise on wheels...for 31 wonderful hours and 1681 km, (1042 miles) you can relax in style and explore the beauty of Queensland from your window. It is without doubt, a journey that you will long remember.... Queenslander class represents one of the best value travel secrets available in Australia today.

Queenslander class operates as a twice weekly service along the east coast of Queensland between Brisbane and Cairns and incorporates a motorail service so you can take your car.

This premium, all inclusive style of travel features first-class accommodation, fine dining in an exclusive restaurant car, entertainment and local commentary, personalised service, and o host of extra special touches to ensure a memorable journey.

Passengers are accommodated in twin berth sleeping compartments offering all the comforts of home as well as a host of special extras and receive the highest levels of service from the dedicated team of onboard personnel.

The rest of the train is just as welcoming with a relaxing lounge car ideal for a drink and chat with new found friends, and a restaurant car, which is the setting for the journey's fine dining experience.

Every tantalising meal aboard Queensland class is prepared by an experienced onboard chef, and has a distinctly Australian flavour.

Between Brisbane and Cairns, you will stop at seven other coastal towns and cities, including some of Australia's best known tourist destinations. Most stops offer access to the Barrier reef as well as the coastal ranges to the west with central Queensland beyond.

Queenslander class makes train travel not merely a mode of transportation, but a travel experience in itself. There is a style about a rail journey which no other form of travel captures, so if you have the time, see it a t ground level with no stress, no speed cameras, no danger. Just a big picture window with an ever changing view, good company and a comfortable armchair. That's what it's all about.

The extras on Queenslander Class, though, are what make it special: the tiny spray of fresh flowers in the compartment and on the dining tables; the spacious shower facilities, an attentive staff trained to deliver a high level of service; a bar at which the choice between heavy beer and light is yours; and the food.

This journey along the scenic Queensland coast is regarded as "One of the Great Rail Journeys of the World"... and is a fabulous way to start out or finish a tropical North Queensland holiday.
