Australia Railway Time 30cm Talking Wall Clock – 12 Hourly Station Announcements

All Aboard — A Trip Around Australia, One Hour at a Time

Buying two? The Gift 2-Pack is A$90 and saves A$9.96 compared with buying two singles.

Remember the platform announcements? The crackle of the speaker, the name of the next stop, and that feeling that the whole country was just a train ride away.

The Australia Railway Time clock brings that feeling home. It's styled like an old station clock, with a wood-look frame, a cream dial, a black Australia map and the words "Australia Railway Time" across the face. Each hour is marked with a station, not just a number.

Then, every hour on the hour, it announces the time and the station you're "arriving" at, so the day becomes a journey from Darwin to Hobart.

How It Works

Instead of a beep or a chime, the clock plays a short station announcement on the hour:

"The time is three o'clock. You are now arriving at Brisbane Roma Street Station."

Twelve hours, twelve stations, from the Top End to Tassie.

Night Mode: the announcements go quiet from 9pm to 6am, so there are no station calls overnight.
