DESCRIPTION: |
Steam Train Tours
with 3801 and Focus
10 travelling to the
Southern Highlands,
Blue Mountains and
Hunter Valley.
Join Focus 10 for
the sight, sound &
emotion of a steam
train adventure
departing from
Central Station
Sydney 4 times a
year to meet up with
festivals around
Sydney. We charter
private compartments
on the famous 3801
train for that party
atmosphere and our
privacy.
The
journey itself is
wonderful - the deep
chuff, chuffing
sound of the famous
3801 locomotive
labouring up a steep
incline, the
romantic smoky light
filtering into the
wood panelled
carriages - the
rural scenery
unfolding as we
hurry along.
Bundanoon (April
tour) is one of our
most popular trips
with an annual
Highland gathering
of pipers emerging
from the mists. See
Scottish Highland
dancing, join in
tossing the caber,
shot putt, water
toss, haggis hurling
and kilt lifting.
Bring your own
picnic lunch or grab
a gourmet treat such
as kippers and
oatmeal cakes. Trace
your Celtic heritage
and wander around
absorbing and
capturing on film
this marvellous
highland gathering.
