Hello everyone! Welcome to a new video! In this video, me and Aussie Trainspotter were invited to the official grand opening celebrations for the now completely restored Peckett and Sons 0-4-0ST Steam Locomotive numbered ‘1069’ and ‘HRM No1’ and named ‘Donald R. Walker’ that Atherton-Herberton Historic Railway owns and operates between Herberton and Herberton Historic Village. In this video we see ‘1069’ moving out of the sheds and into Herberton Station, and some speeches by the Marketing Person, President and Vice President of the Atherton-Herberton Historic Railway and a speech by Shane Knuth, a politician. This was truly a special day for the railway as it has been many years and tens of thousands of hours of volunteer work to get ‘1069’ and it’s coach up and running on the 2 kilometres of track between Herberton and Herberton Historic Village. The Atherton-Herberton Historic Railway now intends to get another 4 kilometres of track beyond Herberton Historic Village to Moomin running with ‘1069’ and eventually, the whole 22 kilometres of track between Herberton and Atherton running under their Queensland Rail 2000 Classes! We also briefly discuss the now no longer running Ravenshoe Steam Railway, located 40 kilometres (24 miles) south of Herberton by road.
