The Derwent Valley Railway is a not-for-profit organisation based at New Norfolk 40mins north-west of Hobart in Tasmania's Derwent valley and is one of Australia's most scenic railway lines which we endeavour to develop into one of the worlds premiere tourist railways. Our aim is to run regular passenger trains, with a tourism emphasis, further west to popular tourist destinations such as Plenty, National Park, and Maydena and also to bring aid prosperity to the Derwent valley through increased visitor numbers.
