This location serves as the home to the Downs Explorer museum, where visitors can explore operational workshops and a remarkable collection of restored locomotives, carriages, and various rail artifacts. The tour provides deep insights into the region's rail history, the ongoing preservation efforts, and the compelling stories of the people who shaped the development of Queensland’s extensive railway network.

We went on the children's stream train event. The steam train needed repair so ended up in the Diesel train instead. It was very clean, lovely service by the volunteers and a great experience for us and our children. Highly recommend.
