Hobart: In October 2015, the Australian government announced a plan to replace the Aurora Australis by 2019. It was decommissioned in 2020, amid attempts to retain the vessel in Hobart as a floating museum.
Melbourne: With declining passenger numbers, it was decided to combine the Spirit of Progress and Southern Aurora into one train, the Sydney /Melbourne Express. The Southern Aurora ran for the last time on 2 August 1986.
