All Aboard the Gold Train!
Event Information
About this event
Climb aboard the Gold Train and pan for gold! Join Thames School of Mines and the Thames Small Gauge Railway Station in a mining adventure that starts with a fun train ride and ends with panning for your own real gold at Thames School of Mines.
Begin your journey at Thames Small Gauge Railway and embark on a journey to the Thames Goldfields. Then, try your luck at gold panning at Thames School of Mines, where you can pan for your own real gold. Finish off with a tour of the Mineral Museum and try out their newest attraction- four QR code tours to entertain every member of the family.
At $10 a child, $5 an adult and $30 for a family (including two adults and three children) for the experience and a gold panning bag, the Gold Train is an excellent way to spend a morning or afternoon on your way up through the Coromandel, or just to enjoy the summer sun.
