Ride on mini trains running again this month

The miniature trains will be running again in Nambour on Sunday April 26 at the mini rail park at 1 Florence Street (off Hospital Road), Nambour.

The trains will start at 10am and run until 2.30pm (locos permitting).

“Steam, battery and petrol locomotives will haul the trains around 1 km of tracks and visitors can ride on just one train or try riding on everyone of our different trains,” said Ken Coulter of the Sunshine Coast Railway Modelers Society Inc.

There is plenty of parking 100mtrs away at the QR railway station car park and a sausage sizzle and cold drinks will be available on the day, plus the railway is small dog friendly.

The best value tickets are 6 rides for $15, or 20 rides for $50. Single rides are $3 per ride and EFTPOS is available.

“Children 4 yrs and under ride free when travelling with a fare paying adult,” Mr Coulter said.

“For your safety, enclosed shoes must be worn to ride on the trains, so no thongs or footwear where the toes or foot is exposed.

“And a reminder that these are miniature trains and our locos do have weight limits as to the load they can haul. It is terrific to see families coming out and enjoying one of the best value family activities around.”
