(ACT Division)

Rolling Stock

The Society preserves railway history, particularly that of Canberra and the southern districts of New South Wales, for the enjoyment and enlightenment of present and future generations.

Members work toward this goal by:

  • collecting and restoring locomotives, other rolling stock and items of railway memorabilia;
  • preserving and recording railway history; and
  • operating trains with restored rolling stock.

More than 100 pieces of rolling stock, including historic steam and early diesel engines, are on display at Canberra Railway Museum, in the Canberra suburb of Kingston.

Pictures and details of the rolling stock under the care of the Society can be found by using these links:
