Federal City Express

The Federal City Express was an Australian passenger train operated by New [South Wales Government Railways] between Central [railway station, Sydney|Sydney] and Canberra from September 1936 until May 1955.
Initially hauled by steam locomotives, the Monday to Thursday service was taken over by Silver City Comet rolling stock from October 1939 for a few years when increasing demand necessitated it be steam hauled again.
It was replaced in May 1955 by the Canberra [Monaro Express].
