Footplate Friends Experience - Departs Wednesday & Sunday Gympie to Amamoor (Return)

This exclusive experience gives you the chance to ride alongside the crew in the cab on the footplate, as the heritage train steams it's way through the beautiful Mary Valley with passengers onboard for a bygone era journey from Gympie station to Amamoor return.


Your Footplate Friend Experience includes-

  • Mary Valley Rattler high vis vest
  • Tea Towel or enamel mug
  • 967 train pin
  • Reusable cooler bag (yours to keep) 
  • Morning tea & lunch pack to enjoy with our crew 

Start your experience with our drivers by joining the safety briefing on the platform alongside the locomotive before helping the crew prepare the train to get underway. Climb aboard the engine cab, and have your photograph taken with our crew. The image will be featured in the Footplate Friends Gallery on our website.

Make new friends chatting to the crew as you enjoy a hearty morning tea and lunch during the day. A day that suits the experienced and the inexperienced guest. 

Please note- A $10.00 or 50.00 donation option is available, this donation supports the restoration of our many carriages. We appreciate your generosity in donating to the sustainability of The Mary Valley Rattlers Heritage Fleet.
