Gembrook to Belgrave

The Devonshire Journey is a wonderful way to enjoy Australia's favourite steam train - Puffing Billy!

The Devonshire Journey afternoon tea train offers the luxury of first class steam travel in fully enclosed heritage carriages.  Tantalise your taste buds with scones, fresh cream and a savoury pastry served with tea and coffee.

Step back in time as you board Puffing Billy's The Devonshire Journey and enjoy the scenic vista of the Dandenong Ranges as you travel the full length of the Puffing Billy line from Gembrook to Belgrave. 

The Devonshire Journey departs daily (except Christmas Day) at 2.40pm and arrives into Belgrave at 4.37pm (4.57pm from 26 December to 4 January).  A complimentary bus is available for passengers to travel from Belgrave to Gembrook and will depart Belgrave at 1.30pm.

This three hour journey in our beautifully restored heritage carriages captures the romance and charm of steam train travel.
