Did you know it’s cheaper to travel with V/Line at off-peak times? Not only can you save money, but off-peak trains are usually less busy.
To help you to identify off-peak services in our timetables, the peak trains are indicated by a grey shading. If the service is not shaded, it is off-peak. Easy!
