Here is mine:

> What's your all time favourite rolling stock?
QR's tilt train, if you don't believe me try out the business class.

> What's your favourite suburban train?
QR's SMU2

> what's your favourite interurban train?
QR's IMU


> Favourite Intercity train?(v/line or XPT/tilt train or day trains)
Tilt train still,


> Favourite long distance train? (Land crusing style such as Indian Pacific
> and Queenslander or mail train)
Ghan,

Queenslander and Indian Pacific a close 2nd and 3rd.
Queenslander missed out by not be able to offer individual shower in each
cabinet, Indan Pacific's catering is a dissapointment despite I travelled by
first class all the time.


> Favourite route?
> (can be suburban/intercity country branch, closed branch)

Suburban: Sandringham line (Melbourne)

Interurban: Sydney-Nowra the best, Newcastle-Sydney a close 2nd

Long distance:  Brisbane-Cairns (beyond Caboolture and forget Townsville
city)

Ghan's route a close 2nd, especially between Port Pirie and Alice Spring and
Adelaide Hill area if you take it from Melbourne.

Ipswich-Toowoomba (3rd favourite)


> Favourite tram?
Melbourne 's W class, please don't go :-(


> Favourite station?

Flinder street, Melbourne

Albury station a close 2nd
