Puffing Billy Railway

Loved by generations for over 100 years, Puffing Billy is one of the finest preserved steam railways in the world! Kids and adults alike will love the feeling of the wind in their hair as they wind through the lush rainforest and beautiful fern gullies of the magnificent Dandenong Ranges National Park enjoying the view from the iconic open-sided carriages.

Located just one hour east of Melbourne, it makes for the perfect day out for the whole family! This century old steam train is still running on its original 24 kilometre mountain track from Belgrave to Gembrook, and the convenience of catching the train at any of its stations is a great way to experience the region. Puffing Billy Railway is now a major tourist attraction and operates every day (except Christmas Day), thanks to the tireless efforts of more than 750 dedicated volunteers.
