After careful consideration of advice from the Victorian and Commonwealth Governments, Puffing Billy Railway have made the decision to temporarily close until further notice.
Puffing Billy's newest experience
The train departs Belgrave daily at 9:50 am or 10:30 am (departs Menzies Creek at 11:45 am, subject to the current timetable)
If you're looking for a great day out with family and friends or a new location for the next morning and afternoon tea social, Puffing Billy Railway is the perfect place to head to.
Whether it’s a fun activity full of imagination for the kids or a get-together with friends, new and old, be the first in line to jump inside our open-sided carriages for a steam train ride that takes you over the hills, down the valley and into the forest on the original mountain track between Belgrave and Gembrook.
Inclusions:
- Belgrave to Menzies Creek return journey
- Free access to the museum
- Morning tea
Passengers can enjoy a 30-minute journey from Belgrave, passing over the historic Monbulk Creek trestle bridge and through the forests of the Dandenong Ranges, before arriving at Menzies Creek to visit the museum. The return train ride departs 45 minutes later with museum entry included in the fare.
The new historic museum covers a space of 1160 square metres and houses over 80 exhibits, including rare operational steam and diesel locomotives, carriages and a rail tractor. Adding to the atmosphere, the Museum also features an operational boiler house that services steam engines, fluid pumps and 500 brake horsepower generators.
A themed children's play area and the Little Toot Café provide space to sit down, relax and await the 30-minute train journey back to Belgrave.
