Queensland Rail is inviting customers to pair up and experience the beauty, character and wide-open landscapes of Outback Queensland with the return of its popular 2 for 1 fare on all trains headed west.
Turn the journey into part of the adventure aboard the iconic Spirit of the Outback, Westlander and Inlander, travelling through some of Queensland's most breathtaking regional landscapes.
Available for both sleeper and economy seat options, customers can travel with a companion for the price of one ticket or save up to 50 per cent when travelling solo.
Queensland Rail Head of Regional Scott Cornish said it was the perfect opportunity to experience authentic regional Queensland, connect with local communities and discover hidden gems along the way.
"Over the years, thousands of customers have taken advantage of our annual '2 for 1' Outback rail sale and we're thrilled to bring it back this year," Mr Cornish said.
"This offer helps customers head west for less and supports outback Queensland communities during the summer season.
"Don't let the summer heat hold you back. With air-conditioned comfort onboard every service, you can sit back, relax and enjoy a journey through some of our state's most spectacular sunset landscapes."
