What a fantastic morning
Everything about this was amazing. The coffee beforehand. The old mate playing the piano in the Cafe (a volunteer). We were allowed in the engine room. We learnt so much history about train and the area. It was a beautiful day. Such a scenic ride. We were on the Sunday trip which stops at Dagun on the return for cheese and wine tasting. My other half doesn't drink much, but she loved the local wine and just had to purchase a bottle. The cheese is from Kenilworth Dairies (which we visited the day before) and is absolutely delicious. It was a fantastic day. Highly recommend 👌

Don't miss this experience
It was definitely worth the drive from Sunshine Coast. Caring staff, wonderful environment, love both cafes at Gympie station and Amamoor, with unique set up. The staff members on board are nice. The view is stunning.

Rattler experience
An amazing day spent learning about and seeing first hand how the Area developed. whilst travelling on board a beautifully restored steam train. Well worth a visit if exploring the Gympie area
