Southern Spirit - a photo on Flickriver

Southern Spirit

            NR85 "Southern Spirit" stands at the buffers at Sydney Terminal, having just hauled its namesake train in from Brisbane. Two NR Class were painted in a special "Southern Spirit" livery for the operation of Great Southern Rails new luxury service.

The Southern Spirit was a short lived experiment by GSR to offer a rail cruise experience above and beyond that enjoyed by patrons of The Indian Pacific and The Ghan. The train was to operate annually between November and February travelling on different routes and visiting different destinations each year. During the off-season, the new Platinum class cars were added to The Ghan and Indian Pacific trains.

The train was not a success, and only operated three seasons before being discontinued. The locomotives returned to freight service with Pacific National until finally being repainted into PN colours in 2019.
