Victorian Colonial Express

Travelling on this train is indeed a trip back in time. This is the real thing, ancient relics from the 1880's travelling on an early branchline with original infrastructure.
They were restored in 1954 for the Centenary of Railways and since then used on only a handful of special occasions. Built in the 1880's these are the oldest passenger carriages available for use in Australia.
Starting from Castlemaine's imposing railway station our Steam Engine takes you to Maldon where you have 2.5 hours for lunch and to explore the National Trust declared "Notable Town".
