Victorian Goldfields Railway | Timetable

Step back in time to an era of elegance and decadence, into the Golden Age of rail travel when the journey was as important as the destination.
Our first class carriages offer a unique rail experience. Choose from cosy compartments or open lounges.
Enjoy a drink or snack purchased from the bar while you sit back and relax.
Ride on the observation platform on our Parlour car and let the world drift by. Leave the hum-drum modern life and go back to an era when the journey was as important as the destination.
