Step back in time as you board a beautifully restored steam train, the Mary Valley Rattler. Departing from the historic Gympie Station revived to its former glory, take some time to wander the station before enjoying the scenic return journey through the picturesque Mary Valley of Gympie.
Experience a slice of history aboard the restored Mary Valley Rattler! Departing from the historic Gympie Station, you will enjoy a scenic return journey to Amamoor. Restored to its former glory, why not arrive early and spend some time wandering the old beauty. Learn about the Mary Valley Rattler line, its people and its history. Then, board the locomotive for a nostalgic journey through some of the most beautiful parts of Queensland. Follow the meticulously restored tracks, winding around curves, over bridges and many gentle hills. Take delight in the gorgeous scenery before arriving in the quaint town of Amamoor. Here, you can watch a fascinating experience where the train turns on a heritage turntable. Jump back on board the train for the relaxing journey to Gympie.
There are no facilities to provide for or accommodate high chairs or prams as they will not fit through the doorways of the carriages and some exhibits are accessible only by stairs.
The operation of steam is subject to weather conditions, total fire ban, volunteer driver availability or situations out of the control of the Rattler Railway Company. At times there may be an operational necessity to change the scheduled engine.
This experience departs from and returns to Gympie Station, QLD.

That's 10% of the Australian population! When we started 'doing' experiences in 2001, Facebook didn't exist; the iPod had just been invented; John Howard was Prime Minister; and Destiny's Child were popular (yikes!). We've been at this business of experiences for quite a while, so put your trust in us to show you a good time.
We want you to have the most enriching experience possible, so if this means swapping your jet boat experience for wine tasting then we've got you covered. Simply exchange online or contact our Customer Experience Team and we'll do the work for you.
We understand life gets busy, which is why all vouchers and gift cards purchased have a 5-year expiry. The only exception to our expiry terms is if the experience has already been booked in. We honour the purchase price of our experiences for 18 months. If you book your experience after this time and the price of the experience increases you can either pay the difference or exchange it for another experience free of charge.
We know the trust consumers place in ratings and reviews is tied directly to authenticity. That's why we use Bazaarvoice. We believe that reviews should represent the genuine, unbiased, and transparent opinion about the author's experience with a product or service. Reviews are not altered in any way by anyone other than the original author — including corrections for spelling or grammar. Reviews are not filtered, edited, or deleted simply because they are negative or are lower-rated.
