April

a run on a steaming day to
Thirmere Railway Museum, take your own picnic lunch or buy from Kiosk,
it’s a long time since we last ventured out to visit the Museum and
there has been many changes to the place in that time.
So with that in mind, could turn out to be a great day, there are
steaming days with steam loci’s, but only when the fire danger is over
which will be about April 2010. The Museum, now run lots of steam train
excursions all over N.S.W. Date not set.
