Description

Steamrail Victoria invites you to ride historical steam train journey from Melbourne to Bendigo. This steam hauled transfer train will pick up at Southern Cross Station for connections with V/Line and Metro Trains services. R711 will be accompanied by S301 to haul our 700 tonne train out of Melbourne and up the almost 160 year old line to Bendigo. Take in the sights and sounds of the locomotives working hard through the forests as they climb the Great Dividing Range and through the tunnels at Elphinstone and Big Hill. Admire stunning views of central Victoria as the train traverses the 120 foot high viaduct above the town of Taradale, constructed in 1862. Arriving in Bendigo at approximately 3:33pm, the volunteer crew will stable the train as you enjoy what Bendigo has to offer for the afternoon. Make your way home via a V/Line train at your leisure, or make a long weekend of it, returning with them via steam on Monday afternoon after a busy long weekend in Bendigo. Tickets are available for either one way travel to, or from Bendigo, or for return travel at a reduced fare.
