Join Toowoomba Trails on The railway that saved Queensland.
The railway that saved Queensland. The railway from Ipswich to Toowoomba was Queensland's first significant infrastructure build, without it the colony would not have survived. Because it was the first our railway shaped the Queensland we live in today. Toowoomba and its Geography is the reason we have a 3ft 6 inch rail gauge. This fascinating stroll through the magnificent railway precinct offers so much in terms of history and unbelievable stories. The precinct is a veritable gold mine of significant history - war memorials, air raid shelters and magnificent buildings.
We meet at the Northern end of the Goods Shed, 3 Victoria Street and finish with a coffee in Railway Street covered in ticket cost.
