Join Seven-0-Seven Operations annual heritage steam-hauled single-day heritage train to Seymour, attending the renowned Tastes of the Goulburn Festival.

Travel by heritage steam train from Melbourne to Seymour with ample time to enjoy the pre-eminent food and wine festival in one of the most productive regions of Australia.

Departing Melbourne, our heritage locomotives will work hard to pull a string of heritage carriages - many of which featured on some of Australia's most famous trains - through the northern suburbs before accelerating through Wallan toward the Great Dividing Range. Between Kilmore and Tallarook, relax in your comfortable seats as the train winds over the range before pulling into Seymour. Accessing the festival from the train could not be more convenient - be met on the platform by representatives of the festival, which lies just steps from the platform.

Our train will depart Southern Cross Station Melbourne 8.45 am Saturday morning, with pick ups at Essendon (9.01 am) and Craigieburn (9.25 am), our heritage train will arrive into Seymour 10.25 am for the start of the Festival.

The return journey will have a mid-afternoon departure from Seymour at 3.30 pm with stops at Craigieburn (4.24 pm) and Essendon (4.50 pm) before arrival into Southern Cross Station at 5.10 pm.

Goulburn Valley’s favourite food and wine festival is hosted on Seymour's picturesque heritage-lined Station Street. Discover new products and flavours: sample gourmet produce and award-winning beer, cider, gin, spirits and wine. Meet producers and talk to winemakers. Be inspired by chef demonstrations. Learn how to use local ingredients in your home kitchen. And kickback to toe-tapping tunes all at Tastes of the Goulburn.
