Mary Valley Rattler I Gympie, Queensland, Australia, Travel Vlog 096, 2021
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 сер 2024
- Today we travel back in history, to a time when the pace was slower and the Mary Valley Railway Line was an important part of the Mary Valley Community....come with us as we take a ride on the 'Mary Valley Rattler.'
The journey through the Mary Valley leaves the historic Gympie station and passes through the picturesque small town of Dagun. Next stop: Amamoor - a historic town bordered by Amamoor State Forest which is home to more than 120 species of birds. After the train turns around on the turntable, we board again to return to Gympie.
Sit back, relax and enjoy the breathtaking scenery of the Mary Valley.....

Hi, we're Beth & Paul from Brisbane, Australia and we love to travel!
Paul retired on 28th February 2020 and on the 1st March 2020, we set out on a 6-month adventure around South East Asia. This was a well-planned once-in-a-lifetime travel experience! It was our intention to show you how you can have a great time travelling without spending a fortune.
Our timing wasn't great - with the outbreak of the Covid-19 virus and subsequent global turmoil less than a month into our trip.
Until it is safe to travel internationally again, we turn our focus on travelling around Queensland and sharing everything our beautiful State has to offer!
Our videos are posted weekly 😊 (we aim for Thursdays).

Great as always! Fabulous heritage train 🚂
That is such a cute train. Toowoomba has something similar a train that runs every carnival of flowers to spring bluff and back. Trains are always fun.
Hi Imogen 🤗 Toowoomba is a great place and we loved visiting during the Carnival of Flowers 💐 the train trip sounds great…..something we would ❤️ to do!
We and a friend of ours took our 3 dog in the last carriage,we had a blast.🎉 The pups had the best time with their heads out of the window.❤
That’s awesome Louise! We didn’t know you could do that!
Hi guys we live in Woolooga, near Rosella farm.
Loved your video. I used to take my children on steam trains when they were younger. Would love to have the cheese board as we chuffed along.
Hi Julie 🤗 yes, who doesn’t ❤️ a steam train trip?! The cheeseboards looked great, but were only for the Premium carriage 😋 Thanks for watching.
Great
Thanks Usman 🤗
Hi Beth and Paul. What a beautiful train and train station more amazing views on the way looks a great day out and the prices seem good keep up the good work and see you soon x
Thanks Tony 🤗 we really appreciate your positivity and support!
That’s an eyeopener for the first time that I see that thanks friends you made my day Greetz Jan
Thanks Jan 🤗 we’re really happy you liked it! Have a great weekend ☀️
@@BethandPaultravel there is is also a gold mine. Museum there in Gympie worth to have a sticky
@@rendezvu84 that’s great to know, we’ll check it out next time we’re in Gympie 😊
Wery wery good
Thanks Mehmet 🤗 🤗
Wow! More memories 😍. I remember going to Hamilton from Rototuna as a baby and the clickitty clack as the wheels went over the tracks. I would have loved to hear more of the train sounds rather than the piano 🎹😂. So sorry for that bit, otherwise what a lovely video 🙂.
Hi Carol 🤗 that’s great feedback. It’s always a juggling act trying to work out the final edit. We really enjoyed this trip. Have a great weekend ☀️
What a Captivating capture!✔️✔️✔️✔️
Such a super magnificent capture this one is,many congrats and thanks for sharing!!!!
Thanks @Reel Happy Travellers 🤗
I loved the pianist melodies in the back ground. Another great Q’land video. Wooh hoo!, thanks Beth & Paul.
Ha ha thanks @Anurquat! 😊 We tried to use music that matched the era of steam trains 🚂 We hope you’re having a great weekend ☀️
Must have been my day off that day, saw Andy though ( reception) 😊
We had such a great day! The dining room at the station is beautiful!
We went on this on Wednesday and it was a lot of fun. We splurged and paid $150 each for the gold class cabin which included a fruit and cheese plate, bottle of water, choice of drink onboard and then a two course lunch back at the station. The markets at Amamoor sold delicious Macadamia nuts and we bought some honey that we’re looking forward to trying.
Wow 😮 that sounds awesome Danielle! We saw people in Gold Class when we did it….and the restaurant back at the station looked beautiful. It’s great to hear that you had such a good time 😊
What a beautiful train and train station. Loved the pianist tonking away at the ivories.
Beautiful jacarandas along the way and the beautiful weather., oh to get back to Brisbane to experience various outings from your videos
Thank you Beth and Paul 😊
Thanks Jenni 🤗 We hope you can get to visit Brisbane soon 😊 It’s going to be hot up here today ….35c in the hinterland ☀️
It reminds me the Old Patagonian Express in Argentina. It´s a touristic train in Argentina with a 40 Km long trip from Esquel to Nahuelpan, in Chubut province. Its employs two hours to make this trip. It is very slow. The locomotives and coaches are from 1922, so they are one century old. You pass from the andean patagonic forest in Esquel to Patagonian steppe in Nahuelpan. If you go to Argentina I recommend to take this trip. Additionally there are beatiful places and lakes around Esquel.
Thanks Oscar 🤗 the Old Patagonian Express sounds wonderful! We love train travel, particularly on historic trains. If we are ever lucky enough to visit Argentina, this is something we would definitely do! Thank you for taking the time to tell us all about it 😊
We love trains. It's fun . We did a similar one when we were in Sydney's Blue Mountains. Old train railways are timeless and the life blood of any community. Thank you so much for taking us
along for the ride. Sending you lots of love 😍😍 Harriet and Jim. Richmond, Va.
Hi Harriet and Jim, we love train travel too. We would love to do the Blue Mountains trip one day. Thanks for watching our no 1 fans 😊
@@BethandPaultravel That is so sweet of you. If you ever come to the States. Harriet and i would like to a meet and greet and we
could do one Queensland as well. 😊
Absolutely!!!
I was sure to forward the link for this video to our train buff son, Michael. He was in Australia a few years ago and did some train related things. I don't think he did this excursion, but I'm sure he would consider it... if he makes it there again.
Thanks, David
No worries David, we would love to have a meal in their dining room next time. Apparently they’re doing twilight rides now too which would be great fun too 😊
Hi Paul and Beth really enjoyed your trip on the train. Something else we'd like to do when we get back to Brisbane soon 🤞😊. My list of your trips is getting longer and longer 😆
Thanks Lynn 🤗 we loved it and hope you get to do it one day 😊 (we’d like to go on The Flying Scotsman one day)!
Hi both, just caught up with the last video and this one. Have really enjoyed seeing the coastline further north as we'd wondered how manageable that would be as a road trip when we finally make it to Queensland on our travels! :) The train ride looked good fun too!
Hi Julie 🤗 the roads to Airlie beach are excellent and we found the trip a lot easier to drive than we imagined. There are lots of great places to stay along the way too. Have a great weekend ☀️
@@BethandPaultravel thanks, that's really good to know. Have a lovely weekend too! :)
I would love to take the kids on this but not sure if they’re too young! What do you think?
Hi @Noosa Mum 🤗 We think that if they’re old enough to enjoy it, then they’d love it 😊 There were kids in our carriage and they were having a ball. It’s only an hour to Amamoor and then after a picnic lunch and a run around, it’s another hour back to Gympie. As adults, the time flew pretty quickly for us 🤗 We loved it!
@@BethandPaultravel Thanks for the feedback. We often said we would love to do it, but our youngest is 3 and not sure if he would behave himself lol.
