The Lachlan Valley Railway will be running shuttle rides to Stuart Town and Molong on Saturday July 14.
And on the Sunday the LVR’s 93-year-old rail motors will be heading to Tarana for a Christmas in July celebration that includes lunch at the Tarana Hotel.
Spokesman Thomas Barnes said the Saturday shuttle return trips would depart Orange at 9.30am for Stuart Town, 11.45am for Molong and 1.45pm for Stuart Town.
Tickets are $25 for adults, $15 for children or $60 for a family of two adults and two children.
The Stuart Town trips will take just under two hours while the Molong trip will last one hour and 40 minutes.
He said the Sunday train would depart Orange at 10.30am and pick up passengers at Blayney at 11am and Bathurst at 11.50am before arriving at Tarana at 12.35pm.
It will arrive back in Orange at 5.20pm.
A two-course lunch meal at the Tarana pub, which is next to the station, is included in the price.
Mr Barnes said tickets cost $70 for adults, $40 for children or $180 for a family of four.
“This is an ideal trip to plan a Christmas in July function, be it for work or a social gathering,” he said.
