What To Expect at Wascoe Siding Miniature Railway

Passengers board the miniature train at the station and complete three laps of the park, including two laps through the tunnel, before returning to the station. If you are keen, you may then rejoin the queue for another ride!

There is both an inner and an outer track, 21 sets of points, fully operational colour light signals, a large marshalling yard and an operational turntable.

Members operate their own locomotives, all fully certified for public passenger operation. Some are steam engines, some diesel and some electric.

Wascoe Siding Is Open From March 7, 2021! Next Event: April 4, 2021.

Currently, train rides will be available for pre-booked groups of up to 8 persons from March 7, 2021 (subject to weather and any increase in Government pandemic restrictions).

There are a number of 15-minute sessions to book a train (for up to 8 people per train) at Wascoe Siding. Note: only one ticket is required for each train (eg. 8 people = 1 ticket).

Unfortunately, the normal picnic areas or canteen will not be open. Only designated train riders will be permitted to enter the site during the booked session.

How Much Does It Cost To Ride A Miniature Train At Wascoe Siding?

Normally, rides are $4 each but due to the current COVID plan, each booked session is $26 for the train, which can seat up to 8 persons, which includes the booking fee. What great value for a fun family experience!
