Almost 5,000 Sydneysiders joined Transport Heritage NSW for vintage electric train and bus rides as part of #SHB90 celebrations yesterday. Congratulations to our volunteer partner organisations and Transport for NSW on a successful day out!

When it was launched in 1982, it revolutionised public transport. Super-fast trains connecting NSW cities with country towns. 40 years later, and the XPT fleet is being retired as memories of a history making train come flooding back. youtu.be/7YjUjJe776Y #XPT #7NEWS
