Frquently Asked Questions

Will I be cold?

Be Prepared – you won’t be cold in the carriages, but you may need a jacket when you exit the train during the breaks, particularly towards the end of the season in April and May.

What if it rains?

Check the weather forecast and bring a waterproof jacket or umbrella. Please note that there is limited cover at Drysdale and almost none at Suma Park, so if its a rainy evening, waterproof jackets are a good idea. Keep in mind that you will be out until almost midnight, so it will be much colder when you are going home than when you leave the house. Also keep in mind that during the stops (three times during the evening, when you change carriages, grab a drink, and use the toilets) you will be outdoors for about 15 minutes while our staff check and clean carriages. Even on the coldest night, the carriages get quite warm and on the hottest night, the carriages can be very hot, as they are not air-conditioned. Layers are a good idea!

What carriage will I be in?

The tickets indicate the carriage in which you will begin the journey.

Everyone swaps carriages at the stops. The carriage orders are as follows:

  • Start Carriage A – B, C end in Carriage D
  • Start Carriage B – C, D end in Carriage A
  • Start Carriage C – D, A end in Carriage B
  • Start Carriage D – A, B end in Carriage C

How does the ticketing & seating system work?

The tickets indicate the carriage in which you will begin the journey and your subsequent carriage order.

This does not mean you can’t choose the carriage you want to be in as your start carriage as long as there are seats available in that section, i.e. you can start in Carriage D and work your way back from there.

It is still essential, as with any event, to purchase all tickets in one transaction under one surname. However, as the individual seats in the carriage are not numbered, you can purchase extra tickets if they are available in your chosen start carriage – as long as you make sure that whoever books the extra tickets books them in the same carriage as your tickets.

The carriage orders are as follows:

  • Start Carriage A – B, C end in Carriage D
  • Start Carriage B – C, D end in Carriage A
  • Start Carriage C – D, A end in Carriage B
  • Start Carriage D – A, B end in Carriage C

Please note tickets are General Admission. It is important to book tickets under one surname in one transaction, otherwise you may be allocated separate carriages. So, remember, if you want to be together, book tickets in one hit!

What is the dress code?

You can wear whatever you like on the Blues Train (almost)!

Dress for a celebration, or just wear your favourite old jeans.

It is important to note:

  • Smart/Casual clothing is recommended
  • No workwear (hi-vis, boots, drill pants etc)
  • No thongs,  sandals, Birkenstock style footwear, Crocs
  • No singlets or board shorts
  • No Club colours (at any time)
  • No sportswear
  • No football jumpers
  • No logos or artwork that may be deemed offensive to others
  • Open-toe shoes are acceptable as long as the heel has a strap, and the foot is secure in the shoe, high heels & stiletto’s are not recommended
Blues Train has right of refusal of entry, placed on our interpretation of the above dress code and the words smart casual/practical footwear, etc
The Blues Train does not discriminate based on race, sex, age or religion. If in doubt, ask a friend, use common sense or look at the photos on our website or Facebook page of other travelers and see what they’re wearing.
If you are refused entry on the night, no further correspondence will be entered into and no refunds will apply.

Keep in mind that you will be out until almost midnight, so it will be much colder when you are going home than when you leave the house. Also keep in mind that during the stops (three times during the evening, when you change carriages, grab a drink, and use the toilets) you will be outdoors for about 15-20 minutes while our staff check and clean carriages.

Even on the coldest night, the carriages get quite warm and on the hottest night, the carriages can be very hot, as they are not air-conditioned. Layers are a good idea! Please note that there is limited cover at Drysdale platform and almost none at Suma Park platform, so if it’s a rainy evening, waterproof jackets are a good idea.
