Pinktober Charity Train

Pinktober Charity Train – A Journey for a Cause

Join the Don River Railway for a very special event as we turn the tracks pink in support of the Penguin-in-Pink charity. On Sunday, 4 October, we are proud to dedicate our 1:00 pm train service to raising vital funds for this fantastic organisation, which is led by Shirley Good and supported by our dedicated volunteer community.

This is more than just a train ride; it is a chance to enjoy a scenic heritage journey through the beautiful Don River valley while contributing directly to a local cause that makes a tangible difference in our region.
