The NSW Government is replacing the ageing NSW regional rail fleet of XPT, XPLORER and Endeavour trains, and constructing a purpose-built maintenancefacility in Dubbo, named ‘Mindyarra’ that will support the new Regional Rail fleetand stimulate the regional economy.
With an estimated 200 jobs required during construction and 50 ongoing roles during maintenance, the project provides opportunities for long term employment and skills development.
Major work to build the Mindyarra Maintenance Centre in Dubbo has been completed, with some minor work to continue in early 2024, including installation of key equipment, building fit-out and landscaping.
