The Overland is a passenger train service between the state capitals of Melbourne and Adelaide, a distance of 828 km. It first ran in 1887 as the Adelaide Express, known by South Australians as the Melbourne Express. It was given its current name in 1926. Now operated by private company Journey Beyond, the train undertakes two return trips a week. Originally an overnight train that stopped at large intermediate stations, it now operates during the day, stopping less frequently. The Overland was converted to standard gauge in the 1990s and now operates from Melbourne over the longer standard gauge line initially heading south to the port city of Geelong, before returning to its original route in Ararat. The train contains Red Premium and Red seated accommodation and a bar/lounge car. Either Cafe 828 or The Matilda Cafe
