This year’s Mary Poppins festival celebrates 150 years since the original Mary Ann locomotive was built in the heritage city and the first built in Queensland! Built by John Walker & Co. Ltd. in 1873, now recognised internationally as the Downer Group, the loco was built for timber pioneers William Pettigrew and William Sim who used the Mary Ann to haul logs in the Tin Can Bay area.

The Downer Group will host a tent at the Mary Poppins Festival with a bird’s eye view of the free heritage train display which includes Loco B15 No.299, 2 DH Locos and the last steam train built in Australia BC class Loco 1089.
