The Walhalla Goldfields Railway started in 1993 and in a short 10 years has become a major tourist railway and tourist attraction for Gippsland. Over 100,000 hours of volunteer time and about two million dollars has transformed a barely recognisable former railway alignment into a leading tourist icon in Victoria. Our railway has primarily been constructed with volunteers and is presently almost exclusively run by volunteers. Presently the railway operates from the famous gold-mining town of Walhalla along a 3.5 kilometre track to Thomson Station on the Thomson River.
Although we are the second busiest tourist railway in the state, we are continuing to build our line a further 10 kilometres into Erica.
So wether you would like to either operate or build a railway, this is where you come in! P.O. Box 1052, MOE, Vic. 3825 Click HERE to download and print volunteer information brochure. [ PDF File 743K ] Click HERE to download and print a volunteer registration form. [ PDF File 56K ] |
