About us:
Zig Zag Railway (ZZR) is a tourist railway located near the town of Lithgow in NSW (approximately 90 minutes from western Sydney). We have recently reopened to the public after several years of bushfire, flood, and COVID - and we couldn’t be happier about it

The Governance of the ZZR is a not for profit co-operative managed by a Board of Directors and supported by managers for the various functional areas. Most workers at the railway are volunteers who donate their time and skills to maintain and operate the railway.
