21.01.2022 2017: Where do we start? What a year it has been. Take a look back as we recap our tours, achievements, and events of 2017. First off, we would like to thank o...ur passengers who have travelled on board #thevintagetrain in the year of 2017! Your attendance on board with us has made this year definitely one to remember. We continue to appreciate your support, and we hope you can join us in 2018! Over the course of 2017, Steamrail has ventured out of the gate a whopping thirty-one times this year, providing passengers with an experience of a life time, stepping back in time on-board with us here at Steamrail Victoria. Other great achievements include steam locomotive A 986's official return to heritage service, along with the maintenance and up keep of our other heritage rollingstock. An extremely big thank you goes out to our valued volunteers, from workshop crew, onboard staff, board members and in-between, a simple thank you cannot be enough for what you do for rail heritage in Victoria. To our members and the general public, Steamrail would like to thank you for making what we provide such a joy to do. Steamrail Victoria would also like to thank the following supporters, who have assisted in our efforts over the course of 2017.
