Way back more than 100 years ago. This place is superb, I really love it. Even though I don't really like history, this place and a lovely staff makes me love it. The museum is awesome. You get to see the real last fell Locomotive. Get to watch a documentary. It's very specific. They also get some fun stuff for kids highly recommended. They have entrance fee but the experience is worth more than that, the staff is so friendly and amazing. They get clean toilet too. The road to the place is adventurous for me
Well worth the small charge of $7 an adult, $2 child over 5. Volunteer was extremely knowledgeable. There is so much history. The Fell Locomotive is the only one left out of the six used. This is a must visit for anyone ousting through. There is also the heritage museum next door but separate identity with another door charge. It's based alot on the military camp.
An excellent museum with a great tribute to some local railway history. Really want to go up and visit Cross Creek now.nVery knowledgeable staff and some toy trains to keep the kids occupied.nnThe only thing I'd say is that it could be laid out a bit more effectively to better tell the story.
Exactly the kind of place that you should stumble across in small, slightly off the beaten track towns everywhere. Esoteric, one topic museum that's so niche it needs a less broad term to describe it, hugely interesting, really well laid out with loads of great things and enthusiastic and knowledgeable staff. Brilliant. Pretend you haven't read this review and just wander in randomly.
Really enjoyable museum with attention to detail and so much information on the fascinating Fell locomotive, braking carriage, and the lives of those associated with the running of the line. The volunteer staff are amazing and we had a personal guide through the first part of the museum. Totally worth the visit if you're just passing through Featherston.
