Another good reason to ride the West Coast Wilderness Railway.
Ever dreamed of riding in the cabin of a loco, helping the driver and fireman on an actual journey into the wilderness? Our footplate experience is your opportunity to spend half a day in the steam loco cabin fulfilling these dreams!⠀
This will include being dressed in your overalls and cap, participating in the daily safety briefing, receiving detailed information about the locomotive from the crew and then working alongside them. You will help move the loco from the workshop at Carswell Park to Queenstown Station where regular passengers will board and throughout the day assist with all aspects of the train’s operation, and this is only the beginning. ⠀
recently fulfilled his dreams on board with the help of a birthday gift. Know someone that would love to take part, contact us today!
