Don River Railway Don River Railway

Don River Railway is living Tasmanian railway history on the North West Coast.

Relax with a 30min return train trip on the historic Melrose Line, taking in views of the township of Don and areas of historic value to the area. The train trip travels on the eastern bank of the Don River to our junction Coles Beach.

Don River Railway is a not-for-profit organisation owned and operated by our members and volunteers and was established at Don in 1973 while the trains commenced operating in November 1976. Our achievements are the result of countless thousands of hours of voluntary labour provided by our members.

The train trip travels on the eastern bank of the the Don River to our junction in Coles Beach. On your return, spend some time and visit our museum and workshop.

Our heritage locomotives and carriages are on display throughout the grounds and workshop.

Museum
Our museum and gift shop is full of memories from the past including photos and artifacts used on the Tasmanian rail system such as badges, photos and seating are just some of the many items on show.

You might not know it but our museum is housed inside the old Ulverstone railway station building which was moved to the current site at Don around three decades ago.
