The West Coast Wilderness Railway has us travelling aboard a steam train from a bygone era which journeys deep into Tasmanian wilderness. Hear about the hardship of creating a railway through rugged terrain, across deep gorges and up steep mountains under the power of the only operating Abt rack and pinion railway still working in the Southern Hemisphere.
Enjoy the stories of Tasmania at Yarns Artwork in Silk where large quilted silk panels were created by the people of the Meander Valley showing their life; Port Arthur Penal Settlement includes a guided walking tour and harbour cruise and The Ship That Never Was which is Australias longest running play and tells of the escape from Sarah Island, the harshest penal settlement in Tasmania.
