They are planning a fantastic event in March 2027 and hope to see everyone there. What is SteamFest?- On the March long weekend in Tasmania, SteamFest brings history to life over three days with one of the biggest collections of working steam machinery in Australia, Steam train rides, exhibitions of pioneering skills showing how things were done in yesteryear, ploughing displays and a full wood chopping competition on Monday. Plenty of kid's entertainment plus lots and lots of art, craft and food stalls. And, of course, their Krauss steam loco running every half hour, all day long! Held in the Town of Murals and Home of SteamFest - Sheffield Tasmania. Buy your tickets online . SteamFest is the major fundraising event for the Sheffield Steam and Heritage Centre. Profits are used to restore heritage machinery and to educate the new generations in the wonders of steam. The event would not be possible without the wonderful support from volunteers and sponsors.

The Redwater Creek Steam and Heritage Society offer a heritage rail experience through the regular operation of a century-old Krauss locomotive. The train leaves each half-hour from the restored Sheffield railway station from 11 am to 4 pm on the first full weekend of each month. The Railway Coffee Shop is open while the train is running, with a nice coffee and hot chocolate. Come on in and try them! The Railway began as a community building enterprise in 1993 and is well regarded for the restoration and preservation of steam-era machinery and local history. The steam museum onsite houses a comprehensive member's collection of working steam engines which can be viewed on running days. The Railton-Roland line opened in 1914, offering daily passenger and twice-weekly goods services until 1957. The Sheffield Steam and Heritage Centre Railway retains this heritage in an authentic environment. A Miniature train and a number of different model gauge trains are also open on these running weekends.
