Heritage railway Port Douglas, Queensland, Australia

What to expect

The Bally Hooley is a historic steam railway that operated in Port Douglas, Queensland, Australia. The railway was originally used for hauling sugar cane from the Port Douglas fields to the Mossman Mill and to the Port Douglas Sugar Wharf. The train ran on a 2 ft narrow gauge track and offered a scenic ride for tourists and locals alike. The Bally Hooley played an essential role in the pioneering story of the town and district. Although the train is no longer in operation, its legacy remains, and remnants of the old sugar cane network can still be seen in Port Douglas
