Over a period of 15 months I have travelled between Melbourne and Sydney, (Australia) a journey which takes 11 hours overnight on the train known as the XPT. During or after every trip I have complained to a crew member or Countrylink about a noise which starts when the train begins to move and gradually increases until it becomes a high speed chatter, it causes vibration if you try to lean against the side of the carriage and prevents sleep, One enquiry brought an explanation that a certain bogie was due for change, however the last trip three weeks ago again produced the same annoying noise and I am still trying to find out what is the cause of it. Once you recognize that it exists it is impossible to shut it out, and it has annoyed me so much that it has made me determined that if I need to make the trip again that that train will be the last choice. I hope some of our Train lovers will be able to give me some clues.
