Wee Georgie Wood Steam Railway Inc

Historical Sites and Heritage Locations

Wee Georgie Wood hails from a time in the early 1900s when railway access was the only way to reach the small mining settlement of Tullah nestled in the mountainous temperate rain forests of Tasmania’s West Coast.

Operating on scheduled weekends and special times throughout spring and summer, immerse yourself in a twenty-minute journey along the restored tracks.

When not in operation visitors are welcome to take a self-guided tour and explore the railway site. Shelters and picnic facilities are onsite.

With breathtaking scenery and fascinating history, the 1924 steam locomotive Wee Georgie Wood connected the town to the states railway system and continued its operation until the Murchison Highway was built in the 1960s.

The heritage steam railway seen today has been operated and maintained by volunteers since its opening in 1987. Through their dedication and hard work, visitors to the area can take a nostalgic train ride and experience what it was like to travel to this isolated West Coast community in the early 20th century.
