NSW TrainLink rolling stock

The NSW TrainLink fleet of trains serves the areas outside Sydney, Australia, mainly regional and interstate lines. The NSW TrainLink fleet consists of diesel traction, with the oldest of the fleet being the XPTs and the youngest being the R sets. The operations previously included interurban and outer suburban services in its fleet until July 2024, with the services now operated by Sydney Trains rolling stock.

## Regional and Interstate fleet

[edit]

All of the regional and interstate fleet are diesel powered and are single deck trains.

### Xplorer (1993–1995)

[edit]

Xplorer

Main article: New South Wales Xplorer

The Xplorers are a class of regional train built between 1993 and 1995. They were originally built to run the Northern Tablelands Express, but later entered services to Canberra, Griffith and Broken Hill. They have a 2x2 seating configuration, with a buffet, toilets and overhead luggage racks on board.

### XPT (1981–1994)

[edit]

XPT

Main article: New South Wales XPT

The XPTs are a class of diesel-powered trains built between 1981 and 1994. They operate regional and interstate services to Brisbane, Dubbo, Melbourne, Grafton and Casino. These trains are hauled by 2 diesel power cars in a push-pull configuration. On board, they have a buffet, 2x2 configuration seats, toilets and luggage racks as well as sleeper cars for long-distance travels.

### R set (2024)

[edit]

Main article: New South Wales R set

The R sets are a new class of electro-diesel multiple units (EDMU) that is manufactured by CAF in the CAF Civity family. They are to replace the XPTs, Xplorers and some Endeavour Railcars. They're currently under testing for the rail network. The trains have gained a handful of criticism for not having sleeper carriages.

## Maintenance depots

[edit]

XPTs are maintained at the XPT Service Centre just south of Sydenham station.[1] The Xplorers are maintained at the Xplorer Maintenance Centre south of Macdonaldtown. The future R set trains will be maintained at Mindyarra Maintenance Centre in Dubbo.[2][3]
