Lakeside Model Railway, Clare, South Australia
The Lakeside Model Railway is in Clare in the mid north of South Australia, just over two hours from Adelaide. The area is a popular tourist and visitor destination because it is one of the state’s leading wine producing regions. This delightful little model railway is one of the lesser known gems in the Clare Valley. Even better – it is a five minute stroll from my daughter’s home. She is a teacher in one of the local schools.
The railway is set in a park like environment with picnic grounds, golf club and Country Club adjacent the railway. Lake Inchiquin is only a few metres away too. The last photo in this set shows the operational days of the month and times of running for this lovely little railway.

I enjoy visiting my daughter who is a teacher in Clare in the mid north of South Australia. There are many things for the tourist and visitor to do in the Clare Valley, one of our state’s leading wine producing areas.
A little known attraction is the Lakeside Model Railway, pictured here on this post. The local model train enthusiasts have regular meetings and the model trains are available for rides by the public. See the sign shown below for days of the month when they run, as well as the times of operation.
And the best thing is this little delight is a five minute stroll from my daughter’s home!
