The Workshops Rail Museum in Ipswich is located at Australia’s oldest railway workshops still in operation. The 150-year-old workshop offers a wholly interactive and cultural experience for visitors.
History comes alive with hands on exhibits, multi-media encounters coupled with huge steam locomotives and massive industrial machinery.
Tours of the workshop are available daily and makes for a great day out for the whole family. Entertain the kids during the school holidays at the museum’s popular exhibition, ‘Day out with Thomas’ which features all things Thomas the Tank Engine including steam train rides and the fat controller.
