Fast Trains for Australia

Fast Trains for Australia

Book my seat on the fast train!

It's time Australia invested in high speed rail on the East Coast corridor (Brisbane - Sydney - Canberra - Melbourne).

The existing rail services between Australia's major cities are slow, infrequent, and can be more expensive than air travel.

It is estimated that a fast train link would get travellers from Sydney to Melbourne in just 3 hours!

High-speed rail is being rolled out in countries across Europe, the US and Asia as a way to link up major cities, reduce congestion and battle pollution. Let's get with the program!

Personal emails have much greater impact than form letters so say it in your own words and/or cut and paste some of ours below into your email.

  • The existing rail services between Australia's major cities are slow, infrequent, and can be more expensive than air travel! PLUS the aviation industry is responsible for 3.5% of anthropogenic climate change (IPCC), while average passenger kilometres are increasing by 5% each year.
  • We cannot afford for aviation to continue expanding. But we do want to travel between our cities!
  • Aside from the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, road congestion already costs Australia $10 billion a year. And Australia's population is expected to increase to 26.7 million by 2026 and 36 million by 2056.
  • Modelling indicates that the cost of the corridor balloons every year that construction is delayed. High-speed rail is being rolled out in countries across Europe, the US and Asia as a way to link up major cities, reduce congestion and battle pollution.
