Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox political party Bullet Train for Australia, formerly known as Bullet Train for Canberra, was an Australian political party, registered from 2013 to 2017. It was a single-issue party campaigning for a fast implementation of high-speed rail. It advocated that the first stage of the bullet train should run from Melbourne to Newcastle via Canberra and Sydney, and be built within 5 years.[1][2]
The party first contested the 2012 ACT election, gaining around 9,000 votes,[3] representing 4% of first preference votes.[4] The party was renamed to Bullet Train For Australia in 2013 and had 18 candidates in the federal election that year, in the ACT, NSW and Victoria.[2]
The party was involved in Glenn Druery's Minor Party Alliance.[5][6]
The party fielded four candidates for seats in the House of Representatives in the ACT, NSW and Victoria in the 2016 federal election.[7]
On 23 May 2017, the Australian Electoral Commission approved the party's application for voluntary deregistration.[8]
