This morning the first of the new X'Trapolis 2.0 trains carried passengers for the first time, doing a run from Flinders Street Station to Upfield and back. Here are a few photos from the trip.
The retro look, nicknamed the candy stripe livery, was part of a refurbishment undertaken over recent months by Transport for NSW @adbunn@bordermail https://t.co/45NuDaLjNm
"It's like stepping back 44 years ago." Former Wodonga railway station junior assistant among those who came to admire XPT in retro colours.
