Here is an ideal opportunity to take our Santa Special scenic trip by vintage
train and spend time enjoying the features offered in Bungendore.

Travel behind a restored heritage locomotive, in historic end-platform carriages
with comfortable seating and with light refreshments available on board.

Your train will climb through the scenic Molonglo Gorge, pass through three tunnels
and cross two major bridges before arriving at Bungendore.

Enjoy 2 hours to browse the markets or shops in Bungendore. There is plenty to
see - Bungendore has a great range of craft shops and cafés, and nearby picnic
areas, to suit all interests.

You can book ahead, or - subject to seats being available - purchase tickets on
the train.

Space for small folding strollers is available close to your seat. Please enquire
about wheelchair access when booking.

* Please note: late each year, dry conditions in the region means this train may
need to be hauled by a veteran diesel rather than a steam loco. Check closer to
the time of travel for more information.

Call our Tours Office to make a booking.
