Buderim’s beloved Krauss Locomotive, a treasured part of the village’s early history, will make its long-awaited return on November 21.
The restored engine will travel up Jones Road before being lifted into place beside the Old Post Office on Burnett Street.
A community barbecue will celebrate the milestone, though public access will be restricted during the lift for safety reasons. The Krauss will remain on-site while a glass enclosure is constructed, with the official opening planned for early next year.
The project marks over two decades of work by the Buderim-Palmwoods Heritage Tramway Inc., supported by Brent Mickelberg MP and the Buderim War Memorial Community Association, preserving Buderim’s rich rail heritage.
