Come and join us on a return V/Line trip to Ballarat, to visit the Ballarat Tramway Museum and see the beautiful Lake Wendouree in a day trip excursion along with fellow transportation enthusiasts. This trip is a great opportunity to meet and socialise with like-minded people while at the same time exploring a city 100km away.

While we are in Ballarat, we will visit a Shopping Center where you can buy and eat lunch, and then we will walk through the Botanic Gardens and visit the Ballarat Tramway Museum.
