More Info:

Formerly used exclusively by the Queensland Railway Executives to tour and inspect the railway network, these iconic railmotors now offer a unique opportunity for passengers to travel in style and comfort.

Passengers can sit directly behind the drivers watching the track ahead though the panoramic widescreens to feel the excitement of being at the heart of the action as you traverse through the scenic countryside.

Our meticulously restored, air-conditioned railmotors ensure that every moment of your journey is as delightful as it is memorable. Whether you're a history enthusiast or simply seeking a unique adventure, our railway tours offer an unforgettable experience.

The total rail experience will last approximately 12 hours.

Trip Itinerary
The Commissioner's Railmotor will depart our Drayton Station at 7am, arriving at Stanthorpe Truffle Farm at 11:30am. There passengers will be given a tour of the facilities before enjoying a delicious lunch of pizza, pasta and salad at Vincenzo's at 1pm.

Morning and afternoon tea will be served during the day.

We expect to return to Drayton before 7pm.

Please Note:
• Drinks are NOT included at Vincenzo's but are available for purchase.
• Vincenzo's is unable to cater for special dietary requirements or food allergies.
• Passengers are strongly encouraged to wear flat, comfortable shoes as the experience will be held outdoors on varying surfaces including gravel, grass and some uneven walkways.

Additional Info

                "description": "\nEnjoy a trip down memory lane at our beautiful Drayton Station for a nostalgic experience reminiscent of a bygone era. DownsSteam is a community organisation, run by volunteers, dedicated to the establishment of a tourist heritage railway for the Darling Downs. DownsSteam was formed to preserve and restore the last remaining steam locomotive built at the historic Toowoomba Foundry Company, C16-106 Southern Cross Works No 28 circa 1914. Along with our two steam locomotives C16-106, and BB18¼ 1037, we have also restored the former Commissioner’s Inspection Railmotor. Not only are you able to wander through our historic station and go on a precinct tour (including our exceptional Dreamtime Carriage), we also run rail trips to various towns on the Downs. Check our website for trip schedules, pricing and to purchase tickets. Every 3rd Saturday of the month, we hold an open day with a sausage sizzle, live music and often free heritage bus rides. "
