Aug 31, 2025 Zig Zag Railway
The reason we came to Lithgow is to ride the Zig Zag Railway steam powered train! We had to take the more modern electric train the 3 miles from Lithgow to the Zig Zag station at Bottom Points to catch the steam train that then took us up to Top Points.
While we waited for the steam train we enjoyed the little model railroad they have in the station!
The train arrived and we waited while it took on water for the climb to Top Points.
We had views looking back as we descended to Bottom Points of the stone trestles we had just crossed.
A great ending to a wonderful day on the rails! What a difference from the winter weather of yesterday!
