Young rail enthusiasts can have a go at the coal loading obstacle course, screen print a T-shirt, or make their own personalised express boarding pass and steam train.

Our passionate and knowledgeable team will be on hand to share the stories of our incredible powerhouses of early rail. There will be plenty of rail-y good fun for the whole whānau!

There will be photography and filming carried out during this event for marketing purposes.
