Our Fleet
V/Line is the major provider
of passenger rail and coach services to regional Victoria.
Trains
We run mix of
locomotive-hauled trains and railcars (carriages powered by one or more
on-board diesel engines).
All our services are air
conditioned, non-smoking and have on-board toilet facilities. Catering is
available on some long-haul services (more info).
The latest addition to the
V/Line fleet is the VLocity. Capable of speeds up to 160 km/h, the VLocity has
been specifically designed to meet the needs of V/Line’s customers.
Incorporating proven technology and the highest safety standards, it offers new
levels of reliability and customer comfort.

Coach
There are two types of coach services in the V/Line network:
- Rail replacement coach

- Coach services contracted
by the Department of Transport (often with V/Line livery), which comprises
the majority of the coach services.

Accessibility

Most coaches can be
accessed by mobility aids, but 24 hours’ notice is required, as we may need
to change the seating configuration of your coach to suit.
