Enjoy another special journey in front of a Steam Locomotive, this time it is ex Victorian Railways R class number 'R 766'.

This locomotive has been re-gauged from Broad Gauge to Standard Gauge and is now frequently seen at the front of The Picnic Train as they run Steam Hauled tours all over New South Wales in Australia. Check them out here → https://www.picnictrain.com.au/

On this particular day we join the train at Maitland Railway Station in the Hunter Valley, NSW and travel along the North Coast Railway line to Dungog. After a few hours at Dungog the Locomotive will run around the carriages and return Tender First back to Maitland. The locomotive is serviced and provisioned with Water at Dungog by a dedicated team of Volunteers who ensure the ongoing upkeep of the engine.

Plenty more steam trips to come soon! Leave a comment where you would like to see next :)
