Wee Georgie Wood is a 600mm-gauge 1921 Fowler 0-4-0 tank steam locomotive that operates on the short Farrell Tramway at Tullah.
Most of the original tramway route was inundated by the rising waters of Lake Rosebery. In the 1980s Wee Georgie was rescued and restored to full running order by a group of local enthusiasts and volunteers.
See website for running day dates and if your in the area please come for a ride and experience the nostalgia of riding on a piece of West Coast living history.
Further Information
Wee Georgie Wood was the prime source of motive power for the tramway between 1921 and 1962, when the new Murchison Highway reached Tullah and the original tramway ceased operations.
Radford Wood Crafts, which specialises in using local, native timbers, is also in Tullah.
