This weekend we travel to beautiful Quambatook with The Grainlander; Silo Cinema sleeping car tour. We thank the 80 guests who will join our train at Southern Cross station this morning, and another 20 guests who join in Ballarat. Without your support this excursion would not have been possible.

If you’re booked to travel with us this weekend we are excited to be welcoming you on board our heritage train for your journey to Quambatook. Please check in with the train manager and comply with COVID requirements prior to boarding, you won’t be able to join the train until you’ve registered with the train manager on the platform. MAKE SURE YOU VISIT WOOLWORTHS AT SOUTHERN CROSS FOR INSECT REPELLENT as our friends in Quambatook have advised us that the bugs enjoy feasting at the outdoor cinema.

Confirmed departure times are:

Southern Cross 7.42am

Departing Ballarat 11.50am

Departing Maryborough 1.05pm

Arriving Quambatook 6.10pm

Departure platform details change frequently, so we advise booked passengers to arrive at the station no later than 10 minutes prior to the scheduled departure time and check the information screens for platform details. We can not wait for passengers who arrive late! Our train needs to fit in neatly with all the other trains that are operating on the railway network.

We are very pleased that this excursion is operating fully SOLD OUT, no further sleeping compartments are available.
