The Lowdown

The Lithgow Zig Zag is back and remains one of the major engineering achievements of the railway era, its construction opened up the western area of New South Wales beyond the Blue Mountains for development with access by rail. It was the major achievement of NSW Railways Chief Engineer John Whitton. At the time of its construction, it was the greatest civil engineering work in Australia and was considered worldwide as an engineering marvel.

On this epic day out we’ll get the train from Penrith station to Zig Zag station and enjoy the steam ride before heading back down on the train to Penrith station.

Price includes lunch and zig-zag train passes, other personal expenses are not included.
