In 1999 a new attraction was introduced at our museum. The 7 1/4 inch (or 184 mm) railway travels through the museum picnic grounds in a bushland setting. Our miniature railway was introduced using the petrol locomotive and carriages, pictured below.

After the railway's successful introduction to the Albion Park site, the decision was made to build the larger locomotive, Strathalbyn II. This diesel locomotive is now the main locomotive used on our running days.

We are able to run two trains during busy days using both locomotives and our current fleet of five carriages. The society is finishing off a steam locomotive for this ride, which will become another attraction at the Museum.

As a safety requirement, persons wishing to travel on this ride must wear enclosed footwear
