Queenstown Railway Station, Queenstown

Seriously the best experience, I am so glad I went on this trip. We stayed in Strahan and went a cruise up the Gordon river the day before, Great. I don't know why anyone would say it was not good, maybe they didn't like old steam trains or trains in general. Then don't go on it in the first place!? The narration that was told while on board was really great. I asked for a transcript but it wasn't available. The views where great. Just get on it and Go.

Had a fantastic trip! The train is very rickety and holds the old-school charm of a steam engine. We were the very last carriage and had the front seats to the rear balcony. As a train nerd, I loved this! We had no kids in the first-class carriage which was a nice relief between stops as there were kids yelling and screaming everywhere. If you aren’t family oriented I definitely recommend paying the extra for the food and peace and quiet!
