Puffing Billy Railway, Melbourne
Puffing Billy is a narrow gauge (2'6") steam railway in the Dandenong Ranges near Melbourne, Australia.
The line was opened in 1900 to serve the local farming and timber community. It originally ran from Upper Ferntree Gully station (now a suburban station on the broad gauge Belgrave line); it now begins at the Belgrave narrow gauge station, adjacent to the Belgrave broad gauge station.
Victorian Railways closed the line in April 1954. In 1962, however, the Puffing Billy Preservation Society was created and now operates the line daily as a popular tourist activity over 24km with original steam engines.
