OUR JOURNEY

Our History: The club was formed in 1973 operating on land where the current Springs Garden World on Spring Street exists. From 1996 until 2016 the track was located at the Kearney Springs Historical Park.

​

During 2016/2017 the track was relocated to Lemway Park, Lemway Avenue, Kearney Springs and has been operating from this site since October 2017

​

What you see today is the result of many thousands of hours effort from hard working members, and the support of the Toowoomba Regional Council in the massive task of preparing the earthworks and drainage for the track, and the station and club shed buildings.

Our Engines: Our Club’s and members’ model locomotives consist of steam, diesel, diesel-electric, and electric powered units.  Some members also have model traction engines, and the park has an adequate area to accommodate these.

​

Our Resources: The construction, operation and maintenance of the railway is carried out voluntarily by the members.  Club expenses include coal for model steam locomotives, maintenance of track infrastructure, public liability insurance.  Our revenue is limited and comes by way of public train ride fares, private hire events, members’ subscriptions and occasional grants (e.g. various community benefit funding programs).

​

The Toowoomba Regional Council funded and constructed the new earthworks, drainage and buildings for our recent relocation to Lemway Park.
