Before they scrap the sleepers on tilt train , I though this maybe the
end of Sunlander..........But since sleepers won't be introduce,
Sunlander would be keep.

I though if Queenslander extend to Sydney, they might keep the sitters.
Westlander/Inlander will be replace by daylight high speed DMU
currently develop by QR, both West and In's ridership aren't very high
current rolling stock would be enough to cater patrons.

Or possibly new service? How about a service between Hevery Bay and
Brisbane? Brisbane and Toowoomba? Warwick? Yeppon and Rocky shuttle?
