Restored Queensland Train Carriage in Glasshouse Mountains, Australia
The Victorian Train Carriage is one of only 23 built between the years 1882 and 1886, and it’s the only one owned privately. This restored carriage has a double size bed in a carpeted bedroom, a small kitchen with hotplates for cooking, a full size refrigerator and a storage space. It also has an outside deck area overlooking an orchard. There is a split-system air conditioning for maximum comfort in summer and winter. This unique carriage can accommodate up to 2 people.
Queenslander Train Carriage is a 60-year-old, lovingly restored train with over 1,00 hours of work that provides the ambiance of a bygone era. Located in the orchard towards the rear of the property, this carriage provides a double bed in a separate bedroom (8 square meters) with timber floors, an attached en-suite bathroom, a separate space for a fully equipped kitchen/living area, a split system air-conditioning for winter and summer comfort, and an outdoor deck with a perfect view of the coffee orchard.
Eat out at one of the cafes or hotels in the area or similarly, glampers can prepare their own meals in the fully equipped self-catering train carriage dining car.
