The Seymour Heritage Railway Centre has announced it will be heading back to Tocumwal on Saturday, February 8 with another train load of passengers.
They would love to have our community come down for a look at the heritage train.
Better yet, you can even make your way down to Shepparton and ride the train back to Tocumwal if you wish to experience the dining or excursion sections.
Be sure to follow the Seymour Railway Heritage Centre (SRHC) Facebook page for more updates. Tickets are expected to go on sale next Sunday from 7pm.
