Guests on The Overland have the choice of two levels of service; Red Service and Red Premium Service. Red Service offers a value for money option with all the comforts you need, while Red Premium gives guests more services and more personal space. Both service levels offer ample room to move around the train and stretch your legs. The Café Carriage also provides the chance to meet your fellow travellers and socialise in a comfortable, friendly environment.

Red Service

This option is ideal for travellers looking for an economy option that offers an exceptional level of comfort and freedom to move around. When compared with flying, driving or taking the bus, the seats are more comfortable and offer greater personal leg room.

Red Service seats are two abreast and the plush, reclining seats swivel to face each other if you prefer to mingle with your fellow travellers. For a drink, snack, or just a chance to stretch your legs, visit the licensed Café Carriage.

Red Premium Service

• Comfortable reclining seats offering greater personal space. Two seats on one side of the aisle, one seat on the other side, with 36 seats per carriage
• 67cm pitch between seats
