Thirlmere Rail Museum

Rail Museum Facility

Client: Robson Civil Projects

This Design & Construct project included the construction of a new round house for diesel and steam trains, the relocation of an existing turntable, various rail work and infrastructure along with associated civil works across the site.

The roundhouse was the first built in over 60 years and required strong input into all aspects of the building.

Features inside the building include:

  • 7 new rail roads
  • full size spray booth for trains
  • diesel service pit
  • tri-level road service pit for both steam and diesel trains
  • ash pit
