About this place
What to expect
The award winning Bathurst Rail Museum brings the rich social history of Bathurst and the story as a railway town to life, with personal recollections and interesting artefacts. Explore the stories of local people connected to the Railways, past and present, who have contributed to making Bathurst the thriving city and community it is today. The centrepiece is the largest public HO scale model railway in Australia, depicting the Great Western Line between Tarana and Bathurst during the 1950s-60s. Young children are encouraged to explore creative play with one of the world's largest permanent Brio layouts, in their dedicated Kids Central Space.
