The Mary Valley Rattler has a rich and fascinating history that dates back to the early 20th century. Originally built to transport timber, the railway played a vital role in the region’s development. Today, it has lovingly been restored and offers a unique experience for visitors. With a 3hr and 40km journey, the Mary Valley Rattler is the third longest heritage railway in Australia. Sit back in time and experience the nostalgia of riding a fully restored heritage train through the stunning Mary Valley countryside.
