🚂 Today marks 123 years of Puffing Billy Railway and the wisdom that comes with riding the rails for over a century! 🎉🎂

On this day in 1900, the inaugural journey between Upper Ferntree Gully and Gembrook, gracefully hauled by the iconic locomotive 4A, marked the beginning of an incredible 123-year journey through time. 🌿

Today, we celebrate not just a railway but a living, breathing storybook of history, nostalgia, and the joy of steam train travel. Join us in celebrating this milestone and share your favourite Puffing Billy memories with us!

The Best Dam Tour Guide around!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Has the inclement Melbourne weather got you thinking twice about your annual outdoor Christmas function this year?

Never mind I have a solution that you might be interested in.

Why not a chauffeur driven Christmas break up, to somewhere like Echuca and then enjoy a nice riverboat cruise with your colleagues, family or friends ?

https://www.murrayriverpaddlesteamers.com.au/

I can provide the transportation up and back for groups of up to 7, I can throw in some champagne and a few nibbles for the trip up. I can even organise the riverboat cruise if you wish. Certainly this is a better way than trying to predict Melbourne‘s weather!!

If you are interested in doing something a little bit different this year for your Christmas Break up or family Christmas get together, then please get in touch

You can message me through messenger direct all my links are on my page but if you wish to be discreet SMS me on 0413 348 643 or email me at [email protected]
