Mornington Tourist Railway, School Holiday Special Runs

Heritage steam and diesel rides on selected Sundays and through school holiday breaks. 5km between Moorooduc and Mornington, vintage carriages, simple and good.

First timer

The Mornington Tourist Railway runs a 5km heritage line between Moorooduc and Mornington, with selected Sundays year-round and additional special runs during school holidays. Steam or diesel depending on the day, vintage carriages, volunteer-operated.

For general Sunday runs you can usually walk up. School holiday specials and themed events need booking. Check the website close to dates because the schedule shifts.

The extra trick is to align with the Moorooduc Station Market on the same site for a doubled-up morning.

Keep planning
