About this place
What to expect
The Atherton-Herberton Historic Railway offers special heritage train rides experience on a fully restored 1905 Peckett Steam Locomotive. With it's 1913 fully restored wooden passenger carriage, the train operates from Herberton Railway Station to the Historic Village Herberton and to Moomin station and return. The steam train ride operates on selected weekends (see our online booking system on our website for details) both Saturdays and Sundays, plus most public holidays. Operated by an all volunteer group who are passionate about restoring historic rolling stock and progressing with upgrading the 22 km of railway line between Herberton and Atherton. In time we will have operations between the two centers of Atherton and Herberton, running rail motors over the Herberton range to Moomin and our Steam train running from Moomin to Herberton. Passengers also have an extensive workshop and restoration center tour along with our railway museum and railway refreshment room in Herberton.
