West Coast Wilderness Railway picnic train 2010 Tasmania Australia

West Coast Wilderness ABT rack system railway trip from Queenstown to Strahan and back Tasmania Australia. This was the 2010 Australia Day Picnic train for locals etc. There were 2 trains leaving Queenstown early in the morning to Strahan and returning late afternoon as a double headed single train. Typical weather on the west coast was 3 seasons in one!!

Unique, amazing landscapes! The train is something that not many people had the chance to see or experience. Lovely! Thanks for sharing!

in the days of mud and horses and some bicycles - a train was a luxury = great video and i want to come and live there with a small business.

Judith, these engines are oil burners not coal, there is an oil bunker/tank at the back of the cab which feeds oil to the burner in the firebox.

How do you have a stream train emit steam when there is no sign of any accompanying coal car?
