Sydney Trains, a state-owned entity based in Australia, founded in 2013, operates with approximately 5,110 employees. The company functions as an operator of trains in the greater Sydney suburban area.
Sydney’s V-set trains completed their final passenger service on February 1, 2026, concluding more than five decades of operation on key intercity routes. The stainless steel fleet, introduced in 1970, served millions of passengers traveling between Sydney, the Central Coast, Newcastle, and the Blue Mountains. This marked the official retirement of the V-set fleet, with the last set withdrawn from service on January 30 after 55 years on the rails, as outlined in a New South Wales government ministerial release. The final V-set train arrived at Central Station on January 29, its familiar hum signaling the end of its constant presence for generations of commuters. On January 28, the train, packed with rail enthusiasts, made its last trip from Lithgow through the Blue Mountains, pulling into Central Station to cheers and even skipping stations at Blaxland and Glenbrook due to full capacity. Separately, on January 28, Sydney Trains welcomed its largest-ever intake of apprentices, inducting 96 new individuals at Clyde. This initiative aims to rebuild rail skills and strengthen the heavy rail network's long-term capability, bringing the total number of Sydney Trains apprentices to a record 270.
