About this event
What to expect
Since the non-for-profit volunteer organisation took over the Goolwa to Victor Harbour section of railway on 18 October 1986 it has grown into a South Australian icon.
SteamRanger invites you to celebrate with a weekend in the Fleurieu Peninsula as they put history in motion with a special showcase of steam, diesel and railcar services over the weekend.
Double Headed Cockle Trains Why have one engine when you can have two! All weekend, we will be doubling up the power with steam engines Rx224 + 621 on one train and diesel locos 844 + 845 on the other.
Bill's Breakfast Brill Hop aboard the recently restored Brill rail car and watch the morning sunlight shine over the Fleurieu as you run express from Goolwa to Victor Harbor. Enjoy a buffet breakfast at Hotel Victor before your return journey, crossing over with the double headed steam at Middleton on the way back to Goolwa.
Rail & Sail The Fleurieu's most unique travel experience! Hop onboard a heritage steam train trip from Victor Harbor, crossing their heritage diesels at Middleton, before arriving in Goolwa. Grab a bite to eat from one of the many eateries on the wharf before your cruise along the Murray River.
