Due to Melbourne Airport Rail works, there will be service changes for part of the journey on the Bendigo and Echuca lines on
Saturday 12 and Sunday 13 December.
A temporary timetable will be available shortly.
Important message for passengers connecting with regional coaches along the Bendigo or Echuca lines – if your journey begins in Melbourne, please allow plenty of extra time to ensure you make your V/Line train connection at Sunbury Station.
