List of named trains in Victoria information


The Victorian Railways and their successors operated a number of named passenger trains, both formal and informal.[1] This page provides details on each of the less notable services, and links to main pages for the remainder.

Some of these services were named to draw attention to their prestige level of service; others were named because they ran a specific roster or schedule, and these names were more often informal and occasionally picked up by the Railways in an official capacity later.
