About The Christmas in July Dinner Train
The journey commences from Mount Barker station – a pleasant 20 minute drive from Adelaide along the South Eastern Freeway. Your ticket includes a twilight three-course dinner at a Strathalbyn hotel and return travel from Mt Barker.
Leaving Mt Barker late afternoon, listen to our heritage steam locomotive, as it hauls the train up to the crest of the line at Philcox Hill and then winds down the eastern escarpment of the southern Mt Lofty Ranges, passing through several long abandoned station sites which bear testimony to the importance of this branch line a century ago.
Crossing the Angas River you then enter the historic township of Strathalbyn where many Scottish migrants settled in the early 1800s, influencing the early architecture which is still evident today. The town is well worth a return visit during the day to explore its well stocked antique shops and cafes.
Enjoy a country cooked meal, before returning to Mt Barker in the evening.
