The West Coast Wilderness Railway, based at Queenstown Station in Tasmania, is a reconstructed historic railway that originally operated from Queenstown to Strahan. Known for its unique Abt rack system that conquers mountainous terrain, the railway offers a tourist experience focusing on Tasmania's West Coast history. Originally opened in 1897, the railway ceased operations in 1963 but was restored in the early 2000s as the Abt Wilderness Railway. With original locomotives still chugging along, this scenic railway journey takes passengers through lush rainforests and rugged landscapes, offering a glimpse into Tasmania's rich mining heritage.
