* Please note this Sunday 5th July, the 1pm train is fully booked.
Any visitors thinking of coming to the KMR from Melbourne, Andrew and I suggest that you consider travelling via the Hume Highway and take either the Broadford or Tallarook turnoff. The Melba Highway has been experiencing lengthy delays due to pipeline workers in the area, also bushfire areas
(Yarra Glen, Kinglake, Whittlesea and Flowerdale) are still having delays.
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.
ALSO PLEASE CHECK OUT OUR NEW OPERATING TIMES!!
Our latest carriage is now complete, therefore all of our four carriages have a roof, we also have woollen blankets for all of our carriages for those cool days!!
Please note on weekends and public holidays we run to a timetable (11,12,1,2 & 3pm)
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 twelve year period and is a not for profit incorporated body. All proceeds are put back into the development and running of this facility.
