In the 19th century a train from Sydney to Penrith was driven by John Herron, a large man with the nickname of The Big Fish.[1] The name transferred to the train itself and it remains in use today. The name has been applied to various Blue Mountains services over the years and today is a commuter service from Lithgow to Sydney operated by V sets. Following electrification of the Main Western line in 1958, it was operated by U set single-deck electric trains. These in turn were replaced by double-deck V sets. It is complemented by another service, The Chips and used to also run with The Summit and The Heron.[2] According to the current timetable,[3] The Fish leaves Lithgow at 5:08am, reaches Mt Victoria at 5:37am and arrives Sydney at 7:47am. The Chips leaves Lithgow at 5:38am, reaches Mt Victoria at 6:07am and arrives Sydney at 8:17am.
