DownsSteam Tourist Railway and Museum

DownsSteam Tourist Railway and Museum is a volunteer-run heritage railway and museum in Drayton, a suburb of Toowoomba, Queensland. Located at the historic Drayton railway precinct on Stephenson Street, it preserves and restores Queensland Railways steam locomotives and rolling stock. Notable for its restoration of C16 class locomotive No. 1069 'Pride of Toowoomba' and extensive collection of carriages, wagons and railway memorabilia, it offers insight into Darling Downs rail history.

Visitors can expect an open-air museum and workshop precinct with restored and unrestored steam locomotives, heritage carriages, wagons and railway artefacts displayed in sheds and yard areas. The site includes a workshop where volunteers undertake restoration work, interpretive displays, memorabilia and a small shop. Guided tours are typically available on Open Days, allowing visitors to explore the collection, view restoration progress on locomotive 1069, and learn about Queensland railway operations in a historic station setting.
