The Workshops Rail Museum - Ipswich, Queensland, Australia
Video Edited by my lovely Daughter.
This video was taken last September 2017. My hubby decided to celebrate Father's Day by visiting Train Museum at Ipswich, Qld. It was fantastic. It was our first time visiting it. There so many things you can do when you visit their museum. Watch the whole video to find out what I mean. Hope you like it. Thanks for watching.

Exploring Workshops Rail Museum, Ipswich
Exploring Workshops Rail Museum, Ipswich
A day out exploring Australia’s oldest operating railway workshops is a rite of passage for kids growing in South East Queensland. Climb onboard as we discover why this homage to all things rail is such a hit with families.
Kids of all ages – even Mum and Dad sized ones – will love the model railways here.
They’ll also jump at the chance to drive a train and toot the horn in the simulators.
Kids can also get hands-on to discover the science behind how trains operate with big, fun and easy-to-understand displays.
More than a museum, the grounds are home to an authentic heritage rail workshop operating as it has done for 150 years, so be sure to take a free tour behind the scenes to where the real work of restoring engines takes place.
Little ones will also love the large, rubber-floored Nipper’s Railway play area where they can ride pedal bikes around train tracks or climb on toy engines at a kid-sized train station.
As a nice bonus, the historic Workshops buildings themselves are fun to explore. Our kids were as taken with all the giant old rail warehouses as they were by all the contents.
While you’re in town, why not make a day of it.
The Ipswich Art Gallery was one of the first in Australia to have a dedicated kid’s space, with exhibitions changing regularly. It’s in d'Arcy Doyle Place in the CBD, an area rich with historic buildings and food and shopping options.
Or head for a play in Queen’s Park with its array of gardens, wildlife and play areas.

The Workshops Rail Museum
The acclaimed, award-winning Museum should be on every Ipswich visitor's to-do list. Steeped in history - it was once the workplace of over 3,000 railway workers and visitors enter via the historic Timekeepers' Building - it merges the romance of yesteryear with the exciting technological breakthroughs of the present.
The old boilershop houses the museum, where you're dwarfed by beautifully restored locomotives and carriages, and where kids and kids at heart will marvel at Queensland's largest model railway featuring detailed real-life scenes of the state.
The interactive Nippers' Railway will keep youngsters enthralled for ages with activities such as driving a train and collecting tickets, and a popular exhibit for older ages is the Diesel Revolution where you take the controls of the diesel locomotive simulator. You can also soak up the romance of a bygone era walking through an historic refreshment carriage, or peer into the opulent Vice-Regal carriage to see how the Governor travelled.
Heritage Railway Workshops tours happen twice a day, and the place is packed during school holidays, with the popular Day out with Thomas programs running during the winter school holidays.
