Community News - Nambour tram volunteers

With the Nambour Tram now put back to 2027 those who wanted to be volunteers at the Tram can assist right now at an operating railway in Nambour.

The Sunshine Coast Miniature Trains operate in the park at Florence St Nambour - off Hospital Rd on the fourth Sunday of every month except December.

The railway operates miniature steam, battery and petrol powered locomotives offering train rides to the public from 10am  until 2.30pm.

Volunteers are needed in every department of the miniature railway to ensure the trains keep operating as they have done since the 1980s.

Everything from preparing the locomotives to haul the trains to helping with the bbq to railway safety. As this is a passenger carrying railway the volunteers will gain valuable experience in railway operations ahead of the Tram's arrival.

Volunteers will be given training in their area of interest within the railway .... maybe even become a driver or work on the steam boilers.

Those interested should contact the railway on 0417769993  and see the railway at scrms.com.au or Sunshine Coast Railway Modelers Society on Facebook.
