25.01.2022 Hi everyone. Our January run day will be held on Sunday 5th of January. Please not that during the high fire danger period, we will continue running our battery electric "Jumbuck" loco. It is anticipated that we may see steam running once again on the April run day. The temperature for our run day on the 5th is forecast to be about 16 degrees. We hope we can see you there.... :-)

24.01.2022 Hi everyone. Our next run day will be held on Sunday January 5th. We hope to see you there. The photo's show a recent event at Clarkeville. Two busloads of children from the Lucknow Primary School had loads of fun. The weather was perfect. Will they be back next year???? Also, please note the photo's show the wagon on the rear of the train, in which people wearing thongs or open footwear must ride.

20.01.2022 Just a reminder, that we will not be holding the run day scheduled on Sunday October 6th on account of a family commitment. Our next run day will be held on Sunday November 3rd

11.01.2022 Hi everyone. We regret that we had to make a decision to close early today, the reason being inclement weather. (Thunder storm). Our next run day will be held on Sunday December 1st. Hopefully the weather will be kinder to us.

09.01.2022 Acting on strong words of advice, we regret that we have decided to cancel the run day scheduled for this Sunday 5th of January. This decision was not taken lightly. We will advise if the run day scheduled for 2nd of February will go ahead.

01.01.2022 Hi everyone. Have you ever wondered where the signal post came from ?. The photo below shows the signal whilst in service at Heidelberg. It was a "down" home signal the took you into ether platform, and the disc signals took you into the yard. Thanks to Tony Tuccio for the photo. Regretfully, we don't look like reopening any time soon. Many thanks to those that have supported us in times gone by.
