National Steam Centre - Open Hours

The museum is open every weekend - Saturday and Sunday from 11am - 4pm.

Engines operate on the last Sunday of each month except December

Admission is by donation.

There are over 400 engines and associated exhibits in the Melbourne Steam Traction Engine Club exhibition sheds plus a fabulous miniature railway.

It is hard to imagine a more wide ranging collection of vintage machinery than what is on display at the steam centre. The depth and engineering heritage significance of the exhibits has been recognised by Engineers Australia who have erected an Engineering Heritage Marker at the museum.

The engines on display at the steam centre represent many years of collection and restoration efforts by club members. In addition to the engines owned by the club, a number of members privately owned engines are kept at the centre.
