The wait is over!! Last year I travelled on the Spirit of Queensland (Diesel Tilt Train) Premium Economy Class from Townsville to Cairns, I thoroughly enjoyed my trip therefore I wanted to travel from Cairns all the way to Brisbane one day. However with unpredictable border restrictions and the train’s popular demand, I had to reschedule this trip again and again!
On 10 September 2021, I finally boarded this train once more and experienced Railbed Sleeper from Cairns to Brisbane. In this video I have covered every single aspect of this train, if you have any questions about Spirit of Queensland, I think you should be able to find out the answer after watching the whole video. Let’s jump onboard!
