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:
“In the early forties and fifties almost everybody “had about enough to live on,” and young ladies dressed well on a hundred dollars a year. The daughters of the richest man in Boston were dressed with scrupulous plainness, and the wife and mother owned one brocade, which did service for several years. Display was considered vulgar. Now, alas! only Queen Victoria dares to go shabby.”
—M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)
“The ruin of the human heart is self-interest, which the American merchant calls self-service. We have become a self- service populace, and all our specious comforts—the automatic elevator, the escalator, the cafeteria—are depriving us of volition and moral and physical energy.”
—Edward Dahlberg (1900–1977)
