🌙🚂✨ There is something truly special about arriving at Figbrook Farm after dark.
As you make your way through our storybook gardens, a warm glow catches your eye through the trees.
Waiting quietly beyond the garden path is Carriage 421.
Built in 1915, this remarkable old train carriage travelled South Australia's railways for decades before finding its forever home at Kingston on Murray. Over the years, it has become part of the landscape and a much-loved landmark. Today, it welcomes guests to one of the Riverland's most unique farmstay experiences, here at Figbrook Farm.
As daylight fades, the farm quietly hands itself back to nature. The gentle chorus of frogs around the pond, the distant calls of native birds settling in for the night, the rustle of leaves in the evening breeze and, if you're lucky, even the sounds of wombats become your evening soundtrack.
Step aboard via the central platform and into a carriage where the original timber floors beneath your feet have carried more than a century of stories. They may creak from time to time, but that's simply part of their character, reminding you this beautifully restored railway carriage has lived a remarkable life.
Some stories simply can't be recreated.
Whether you're planning a slow weekend, a romantic couples getaway, or searching for a unique farmstay in the Riverland, South Australia, Carriage 421 is waiting to welcome you.
The journey doesn't end when you arrive. This is where it begins.
