Mooroolbark Miniature Railway — Attraction in Melbourne

A fun family day out at the miniature train yard! Each ride is only $3 per person, and there are so many different trains to choose from! I brought my train-obsessed cousin, and he absolutely had to ride every single one! The trains included an old steam train like the Hogwarts Express, a V/Line train, a typical Melbourne train, a Japanese bullet train, and more!

The trains travel around the park in a circular route, and it’s lovely to wave to people having picnics or those on other trains as they intersect. There's plenty of space in the centre for a picnic or even to host a small birthday party. Just be aware that they are only open on the 4th Sunday of each month, and everything is volunteer-led. So awesome! A great outing for families and train...

So much fun!!! What a great miniature train station for the whole family. $3 tickets for adults/kids over 4. Under 4 are free. Sausage sizzle $3, cold drinks $2.50, snacks $1 both cash and eftpos is available on the premises. Plenty of space for hosting birthday parties. Picnic tables are available but when busy it’s much easier to bring some camp chairs/picnic blanket to sit. The lines can be super long on school holidays…. So be prepared to wait. But we went on a Sunday around 12.30 and we waited maybe 15 mins. All the volunteers are super friendly and helpful. It was a great fun, cheap and well executed from everyone.

Highly...

So much fun!! $3 a ride and it looks us around 3 loops!

The line was long, but the wait time was short. So don't get disheartening if you see a long line.

Lots of trains running at one one (4 trains?).

Each train can take 8-10 people so they get through the crowd pretty quickly.

Very organised and we'll be staffed. Everyone is friendly. Plenty of parking too

We had a picnic so we didn't get to try the sangs. Next time!

Thank you to all the...
