The tour gives you an amazing insight into historic locomotives, carriages and other interesting freight vehicles.

You’ll be transported back to the glamorous 1920s when train travel was the most elegant way to get around – passengers settling into a First Class Lounge car, sipping a long, cool drink while entertained by the onboard pianist. As you sink into the warmth of the red leather armchairs, you’ll understand why first-class train travel is still highly regarded as superior.

Somewhere further along, you’ll visit the baby health car, a child health centre on train tracks that visited rural South Australia to help mothers and children in remote farms and settlements.

Trains and railways are part of Australia’s rich heritage and your day tour will help you relive the full heritage rail experience.
