Scenic Railroad Attractions In Queensland

  • 1. Kuranda Scenic Railway Kuranda
    The Kuranda Scenic Railway is the name for the railway line that runs from the coastal city of Cairns, Queensland, Australia, over the Great Dividing Range to the town of Kuranda on the Atherton Tableland. The tourist railway snakes its way up through the Macalister Range on the Cairns-to-Kuranda railway line which is no longer used for regular commuter services, but instead operates as a tourist service, operating every day of the year, except Christmas Day. It passes through the suburbs of Stratford, Freshwater and Redlynch before reaching Kuranda. The line is used for some freight services and other passenger services, such as The Savannahlander. The railway is 37 km in length. It takes about one hour and 55 minutes to climb one way including the stop off at the falls.

  • 3. Mary Valley Rattler Gympie
    The Mary Valley Rattler, formerly Mary Valley Heritage Railway, conducted steam train trips and tours from Gympie through the Mary Valley in the Gympie Region, Queensland, Australia. It was one of the region's biggest tourist attractions and was managed by a not-for-profit organisation consisting a few paid workers and many volunteers. It has been described as Australia's third biggest heritage railway. It was shut down for safety reasons in 2012; in 2016 the Gympie Regional Council is providing $4M to make it operational again as it is a major tourist attraction for the area. Journeys will recommence between Gympie and Amamoor on 6 October 2018.
