Illawarra Light Railway Museum 

This is one of the most popular and famous local attractions. Steam trains, tram rides, lots of history and a wonderful setting, make this museum a must during your holiday. There is a fascinating display of vintage carriages and steam engines including the restored Kiama (c1917) once used to haul blue metal to our harbour.

The ticket office and kiosk are housed in the original rail terminus of the south coast railway of the 1890s. Charges vary from single train rides to family tickets and are available from our ticket office, the former station building from Yallah, built in 1888.

The picnic area has barbeques available. Kiosk, souvenir sales and catering for light refreshments are available from our dining car on the main platform. A miniature railway runs through the bushland setting. This museum caters for the restoration of the narrow gauge locomotive steam and diesel along with narrow gauge rolling stock that has been collected over the years. The museum is in full operation with all rides running on the second Sunday of each month from 10.30am to 4.30pm.
