The hills have been alive this school holidays as the Puffing Billy Train of Lights has spellbound residents on the iconic trip.
Locals had to get in early to secure a seat this year as the annual event’s two-week run was completely sold out online weeks prior to its start on 23 June.
The exclusive night train entertained families with the colourful illumination of the thick Dandenong Ranges wilderness from Emerald’s Lakeside Station to Gembrook Station and back again.
The Train of Lights concludes this year’s run on Sunday 9 July.
