Puffing Billy's Great Train Race is one of the longest running 'Fun Runs' on the Australian running calendar.
The race isn’t simply a race amongst the competitors…
The exciting challenge is competing against the steam locomotive, Puffing Billy, over 13.2 kilometres through the hills and fern gullies of the picturesque Dandenong Ranges from Belgrave to Emerald Lake Park.
The continual popularity and growth of this unique event of running against a steam train is what makes the Great Train Race an event not to be missed.
The Great Train Race is organised by Puffing Billy Railway volunteers and all proceeds go towards the maintenance of Puffing Billy’s family of locomotives.
