SteamRanger Heritage Railway, Heritage railway in Mount Barker, South Australia.

SteamRanger Heritage Railway spans between Mount Barker and Victor Harbor, traversing through Adelaide Hills and coastal regions over 140 operational days annually.

The railway preserves transportation history through restored steam and diesel locomotives that operated during South Australia's early railway development periods.

Local volunteers from the Australian Railway Historical Society maintain the locomotives, tracks, and carriages while sharing railway knowledge with visitors.

Passengers can purchase tickets at any station along the route, with trains departing from Mount Barker station, located 20 minutes from Adelaide by car.

The Cockle Train service includes a turn on a 30-meter electric turntable at Victor Harbor, allowing locomotives to reverse direction for return journeys.
