Limestone Coast Railway
The railway operated four ex-South Australian Railways Redhen railcars, purchased from the Government of South Australia during the years 1997 to 1999.
Due to problems with public liability insurance, it was forced to suspend operations in about the year 2000. It resumed a limited service to Penola and Tantanoola, but again suspended its operations as of 1 July 2006.
All rail operations ceased as of December 2006. A letter dated 11 October 2007, sent to members and volunteers, said that the railway would cease to exist as an operating entity as from 31 October 2007 and would surrender its lease of the lines it operated over. The Redhen railcars ended up at Steamranger Heritage Railway and were transferred between 2012 and 2013.
