About proposed changes to NSW TrainLink coaches in the North West Region
Based on passenger feedback, we're proposing improvements to better connect you to where you need to go, when you need to go.
With new days and times of services, new stops, and new and improved routes, we want you to have your say and let us know your feedback.
These proposed changes are expected to come into effect in 2026.
New services:

At Wauchope the coach connects with rail services giving access to and from Coffs Harbour, Grafton, the Northern Rivers, Gold Coast and Brisbane.
- New daily Route TM1 between Tamworth and Muswellbrook and return, for a new day-return link to and from Newcastle via rail interchange at Muswellbrook.
