Scenic Railway Winter Thrill

Snug in our winters, we take a seat
Hold on tight, we’re in for a treat
Mountain forest we venture through
Past ferns and trees and flowers too
We soar over the rich brown peat

Tumbling down to the train’s slow beat
We venture closer to the retreat
Three sisters stand amidst the blue
Snug in our winters

Giggling faces, honey sweet
We roll around with flying feet
Passing the stone where mountains grew
Deep velvet jungle - what a view!
The valley floor a mossy sheet
Snug in our winters
