Introduction

WSP cover a range of states in Australia, but it was their 'Rails Around Queensland' section that brought the glimpse of an MKA loco operating on the QR network that brought them to my attention, a clip which the company has given me permission to use on the site.

Very few places in Australia have seen their railway closed, ripped up and forgotten, only to be rebuilt decades later.


Press play and jump onboard as you take a trip through the history of the Cleveland line, from Brisbane city to the terminus. Witness the events which ended the 'Cinderella' treatment of Brisbane's southside network, along with the now long gone Gabba depot.

Saturated in never before seen historical footage and photographs, Down to the bay has something for everyone to enjoy! Jump onboard as we head Down To The Bay...

There is little evidence remaining that suggest the great railway history around the suburbs surrounding South Brisbane.

This film steps back in time and charts the history of the area from in its operational days from 1884 to 1969. It also compares the history to the modern day.

Very few steam train tours in Australian railway history, have matched the scale of QR�s 140th anniversary trip from Brisbane to Kuranda and back.

A real treat on the home run is the resurrection of the Bety, and together they make a stunning, double-headed arrival back in Brisbane.

Filmed in brilliant colour and clarity, every part of this trip is covered with magnificent digital video and audio, combined with exclusive amateur footage from on board the train.
