Powerhouse Museum

The ambition of the members of the Powerhouse Museum is to restore and display engines that have been working in varied "occupations" over the last 100 years. To see visitors look and hear these old engines running as they used to many years ago, make the work all worth the while. According to comments in our visitor book, we may have one of the best displays in Australia.
