Pleasant Point Museum & Railway's
display spans nearly a century. It is home to the world's
only Ford Model trail car, an occasionally operated antique printing
press, and a tribute display to local pioneer aviator, Richard
Pearse. The Railway Society has regular steam days, with occasional
locomotive day excursions - a must for railway enthusiasts. Housed
in old station buildings, the museum preserves the town's
association with the Fairlie Flyer. When closed apply to Dunheath
House, opposite the station. Hours vary.
For details of steam days contact
