Seymour Railway Heritage Centre
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Seymour Railway Heritage Centre (SRHC) is a railway preservation group based in Seymour, Victoria, Australia. The volunteer non-profit incorporated association[1] was established in 1983 as the Seymour Loco Steam Preservation Group to restore and preserve locomotives and rolling stock as used on the railways of Victoria.

The group is an accredited railway operator under the Victorian Rail Safety Act 2006, permitting it to move trains within its own depot.[2] The group is also accredited to maintain and provide rolling stock on the Victorian railway network,[3] running charters, tourist and railfan specials across the state with their fleet of restored trains. Since the early 2000s, it is also a provider of locomotives to freight operator SSR, and previously Qube, SCT and El Zorro until the latter ceased trading.
