The whole family will love waving from the train as it travels past the station and travels through a bushland setting. The museum has steam, diesel, and miniature train rides for the children to experience a piece of history, which mum, dad and grandparents will enjoy.

Local historical railway buildings including the 1915 signal box from Otford and the 1890 Yallah Railway Station building along with the Ken McCarthy Museum building, the Ken McCarthy Museum shows the museum’s history since it was founded in 1972.
