In Service
V sets operate on the following three lines:
- Blue Mountains Line - Central to Lithgow
- Newcastle and Central Coast Line - Central to Newcastle
- Olympic Park Line - Central to Olympic park (Weekdays)
The V sets were a great success. In the 2000s a blue and yellow livery ("Intercity") was progressively applied to the fleet, largely unifying the appearance of the trains.

Famous quotes containing the word service:
“Whatever events in progress shall disgust men with cities, and infuse into them the passion for country life, and country pleasures, will render a service to the whole face of this continent, and will further the most poetic of all the occupations of real life, the bringing out by art the native but hidden graces of the landscape.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“I can counterfeit the deep tragedian,
Speak, and look back, and pry on every side,
Tremble and start at wagging of a straw,
Intending deep suspicion. Ghastly looks
Are at my service like enforced smiles,
And both are ready in their offices
At any time to grace my stratagems.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
