Kerrisdale Mountain Railway
'An exercise in narrow gauge railway
Engineering Excellence'
You may have seen us on 'Postcards' TV show, so come in and visit us, and see what all the buzz is about!
The Kerrisdale Mountain Railway is situated in the north east corner of the Tallarook Ranges, north central Victoria, Australia, the KMR is a unique railway built to two foot
(610 mm) gauge on a zig-zag formation. To gain the maximum height within the shortest distance, steep grades and tight curves also abound.
The railway and museum has been developed by a group of dedicated volunteers over a fifteen year period and is a not for profit incorporated body. All proceeds are put back into the development and running of this facility.
Please note we run to a Timetable (11,12,1,2 & 3 pm) on Saturday & Sunday
* On Friday & Monday trains run at 11 am & 1 pm (unless it is a longweekend when we run to a timetable)
Come and take in our local area of Murrindindi Shire and the many attractions available for you to enjoy after your visit to the KMR. We look forward to your visit.
Our latest carriage is now complete, therefore all of our four carriages have a roof to keep the sun off! Please note we do not allow self-catering for a number of reasons. As we are a not for profit organisation, we do not have eftpos facilities.
