What to expect

What better way to enjoy the Repco Bathurst 1000 than to travel on the Aurora Australis train to the Great Race! Travel on the 1960’s ex-Southern Aurora train for the most convenient and stylish way to enjoy Australia’s greatest touring car race. Enjoy the convenience of staying onboard the train on Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights. Buses will take you to and from the circuit from the nearby Bathurst Railway Station.

The Southern Aurora overnight passenger train, which operated from 1962 to 1986 between Sydney and Melbourne, has seen its original carriages lovingly restored. You can now once again experience the charm and comfort of train travel in our carefully curated rail tours. New for 2025, our itineraries are now all-inclusive and you’ll enjoy hearty meals in our dining carriage prepared by our onboard chef, using fresh local produce along the way.

Sit back, relax, and enjoy the scenery through the Great Dividing Range to Mount Victoria. Travel through the 10 tunnels which replaced the famous Lithgow Zig-Zag enroute to the Mount Panorama Race Circuit for the running of the Repco Bathurst 1000.
