New South Wales V set
The V sets are a type of double-decker electric multiple units (EMU) that operated on the intercity network surrounding Sydney in New South Wales, Australia from 1970 up until 2026. Built by Comeng between 1970 and 1989 and first delivered under the Department of Railways, the sets are of stainless steel construction.
During its time in service, the V sets primarily operated along the Blue Mountains and Central Coast lines, and have travelled approximately 115,000,000 kilometres (71,000,000 mi) in total.
The V sets were delivered over a 19-year period from 1970.
