East Coast DiscoveryPass:
 Explore Australia's East Coast with the East Coast Discovery Pass.
Each pass offers six months of rail travel in one direction between two cities with unlimited stopovers along the way. Start your journey in Cairns and head down to Melbourne, or flip it around and start in Melbourne and end in Cairns. Either way, this pass provides an enjoyable ride on the Queensland Rail and Countrylink rail and coach networks. The best part of the East Coast Discovery Pass is that you get unlimited stopovers.
