About your trip

You will enjoy a picturesque 3-hour historic rail experience to Elgin, soaking up the gorgeous views that the Cape has to offer, including travelling up the magnificent Sir Lowrys Pass and down the Elgin Valley. There is a fully licensed cash bar on board as well as a dining car providing coffee and other snacks. You can also purchase a keepsake from your trip onboard.

About Elgin Railway Market

Located within a converted old apple warehouse lies the bustling Art Deco Market that is The Elgin Railway Market. Decorated in a Steampunk style, The Elgin Railway Market boasts local food and craft vendors and live music. If you are lucky, you will get the chance to greet another train arriving at the market, where you will be able to witness the train in all its whistling glory from the station platform or from the Market’s leisure deck overlooking the railway platform.
