TRANSWA - THE PROSPECTOR

The Prospector, nicknamed the Kalgoorlie Train by locals, travels regularly between Perth and Kalgoorlie, a journey time of around 7 hours. This is a real passenger train, which is quite rare in Australia for long distances. The Indian Pacific, Great Southern and Ghan are mainly tourist trains. The Indian Pacific, which links Perth and Sydney and arrives in Kalgoorlie twice a week, makes a one-hour stop here. You can take a quick guided tour of the town before the train departs.
