The Indian Pacific train route includes the world's longest straight stretch of railway track, 478 kilometres (297 mi) of the Trans-Australian Railway over the Nullarbor Plain.

The Indian Pacific is an Australian passenger rail service that operates between Sydney, on the Pacific Ocean coast, and Perth, on the Indian Ocean coast. It is one of the few truly transcontinental trains in the world. The train first ran in February 1970 after the completion of gauge conversion projects in South Australia and Western Australia.

A one-way trip takes between 70.5 and 75 hours, depending on scheduling and daylight saving periods. The train currently has two classes, branded as Platinum and Gold Service.

A motorail service conveys passengers' motor vehicles between Adelaide and Perth.
