Residents from the Bunbury region recently enjoyed all the comforts of Go West Tours’ luxury coaches on the Australind train’s rail replacement service.

Go West picked up passengers from the Bunbury Train Station and delivered them to Perth, stopping at all of the stops the Australind normally stops at. It then picked up Perth passengers and returned them to Bunbury.

The transfers were run over 10 weeks as part of a TransWA contract that Go West secured earlier this year, to carry out all rail replacement services in Perth and the South West when trains undergo maintenance.
