Due to the forecast hot temperatures across Victoria on Monday, January 27, extreme heat timetables will be in place for all lines on the V/Line network.
With Monday being a public holiday, V/Line trains and coaches will be operating to a Saturday timetable.
No V/Line train, scheduled coach or replacement coach services will operate in a fire district while a catastrophic fire danger rating is in place for that district.
Passengers should plan ahead and check the V/Line website before travelling for the extreme heat timetables and any changes to their services and, please, allow extra travel time.
Extreme heat speed restrictions are enforced when temperatures exceed 36ºC to reduce the likelihood of train and track faults, while also keeping passengers safe.
When an extreme heat timetable is in place, journey times will be extended as the speed of trains is reduced or services may be replaced by coaches for all or part of the journey.
