Endeavour is a diesel multiple unit train operated by Transport NSW TrainLink on passenger rail services in New South Wales (Hunter Valley, Main Western, Southern Highlands and Illawarra lines). They are also mechanically identical to the Xplorers.
Here, we see the old AND the new together departing Moss Vale for Sydney on a 'crisp' morning...
Volvo B7L / Wright B41F new July 2002 for the Manchester Commonwealth Games. 66349-56 were acquired from Mainline in Nov 2002 , initially for the Portway Park and Ride contract in Bristol. 66349 went to Glasgow in May 2004 , but the other 7 found their way to Taunton depot in 2007. When the new management at Buses of Somerset took over they were sent back to Bath in June/July 2014 in exchange for Bath's Volvo B6BLEs .
66350/1 were transferred to First Cymru in Sept 2016 , and 66352/3/6 went to Leeds in Feb 2017 , leaving only 66354/5 in Bath.
66355 is working on service 174 in Wells leaving for Bath. I am not sure whether it is on loan to Wells to cover repairs , as the pink Volvos were , or whether there is a Bath depot working on 174.
66354 is currently on loan at Weston and was also in Wells today on 126.

After a lunch stop at the Chubby Cat Cafe in Tarago, we made a stop at the well-kept and ornate Tarago station on the Bombala Line. A W/B NSW TrainLink Xplorer, 2501, showed up. Now we'll head east of Tarago to wait for two trash trains.
With the Canberra bound Xplorer well on it's way, 4471 leads 4488 and 4717 out of Moss Vale on what is believed to be the trio's transfer run to Goulburn for storage.
XP 2006 (City of Wagga) & XP2007 (City of Albury) coming in to Culcairn Station, New South Wales, Australia.
Culcairn station opened on 1 September 1880 when the Main South line was extended from Wagga to Gerogery. Opposite the platform lies a passing loop.
The 1883 built station master's residence has been restored by the Culcairn Museum Committee.
On 3 October 1892, Culcairn became a junction station with the opening of the Corowa line and an island platform added. On 18 September 1902, the Holbrook line opened. Both lines have since closed and the island platform demolished.
Culcairn is served by two daily NSW TrainLink XPT services in each direction operating between Sydney and Melbourne.
From left to right we have the down morning Canberra Xplorer, the down Dubbo XPT, the up Casino XPT, the down daylight Melbourne XPT and the down Casino XPT. Shortly after taking this the up overnight Melbourne XPT arrived at platform 4 bringing the total to 5 XPTs and 1 Xplorer.

Service 172 operates every half hour from Bath to Paulton during the day , but after 6pm it runs through to Wells via Hallatrow and the A37.
All 25 vehicles at Wells are now in this Mendip Xplorer livery . In September 2017 66726 in Badgerline "Big Badger" livery was added to Wells' allocation.
While waiting for the Canberra Xplorer to overtake, 4471/4488/4717 wait in the Down loop at Moss Vale on what is believed to be their transfer run to Goulburn for storage.
This is a real Xplorer 21 RV, sold by Dodge in 1969 and 1970. It didn't originally have six wheels. Marley Station Mall, Glen Burnie, MD, 8/16/08.
