Episode Synopsis

From the origins of “taking the waters” in 18th-century Europe to the rise of beachside and mountain retreats in the Sunshine Coast, they explore how railways opened up access to iconic destinations like Palmwoods, Buderim, Montville, Mooloolaba, and Caloundra.If you have a railway question for Greg, he would love to hear from you! email: [email protected] follow for future episodes and leave us a review, it really helps!
