According to Railway Digest, XPT recently received lots of criticism on its
quality. In fact as far as I remember it NEVER attracts any good critics.
Question is what can we do with XPT? Or do we really needs XPT or we better
off using V/line style short and light N class carriages or tilt express
train sets like QR?
Withdraw all XPT and dismantle it completely would seems like waste although
I strongly support this move! Certainly its sleeper carriages have to be
redesign and rough riding in coach cars has to improve. Refurbish to tilt
train sets? Add a lounge car/dining car? Any other suggestions?
