XPT in the Bumberry Ranges

            XP2004 and XP2012 lead WT46 through Bumberry bound for Orange then Sydney.

Similar to 2022, the 2023 Elvis Express was combined with the normal Dubbo XPT service (WT27). The train operated to Orange along the normal WT27 timetable carrying both Dubbo XPT and Parkes-bound Elvis Express passengers. Beyond Orange, passengers for destinations towards Dubbo completed the remainder of the journey by road coach. Meanwhile, the XPT continued to Parkes as WT49. A similar arrangement was used for the return journey. 

This contrasts with prior to 2022 where the Parkes Elvis Express was operated as a standalone train on a separate path, and the Dubbo XPT service was replaced by an Xplorer.
