The line wanders away from the river and into the valleys of some of its main tributaries including the Yabba, Kandanga and Amamoor Creeks, and passes through the small township of Dagun. The quaint community of Amamoor is a delightful historic town. Here you can watch the fascinating process of the turning of the engine on the turntable. The VIP shared booth journey includes a local cheese plate, a personal carriage host providing commentary. Additionally, passengers can select a lunch item from the 'Set Menu' and a beverage of their choice.
