ALL ABOARD...SteamRanger's Southern Encounter to Victor Harbor with Brenton Ragless!

“Travelling behind one of SteamRanger’s beautifully-restored steam locomotives – given a ‘second chance’ to ‘stay on track’ – seems the most fitting way to share time together and celebrate the wonderful work of Second Chances SA.

“Please join me for an unforgettable day travelling on-board one of the most-scenic railway journeys in Australia, and hear more of how Second Chances SA is restoring hope to broken lives.”

-Brenton Ragless, Nine Presenter & SteamRanger Patron
