Portarlington mini train fun on the way for Mother’s Day

Portarlington mothers and their children are encouraged to stop in at the Portarlington Bayside Miniature Railway (PBMR) for a fun day of train rides, picnics and prizes this Mother’s Day.

The special Mother’s Day event will run on Sunday, May 8 from 11am until 4pm at the Portarlington Bayside Family Park.

PBMR vice president Brian Coleman said mothers will ride free all day and be in the running for some prizes.

“I have heard a whisper that mums may also be in the running for some little treats as well,” he said.

“There will be several raffle tickets drawn during the day and all you need to do is buy a train ticket.”

Attendees are encouraged to bring a picnic lunch or enjoy the food options on offer.

Seats, electric barbecues and toilet facilities are available on site.

Mr Coleman said the event will be a fun opportunity for mothers to enjoy some playtime with their children.

“Our fingers are crossed for lovely weather,” he said.

“A big thanks to all of the volunteers who forgo their own Mother’s day to help run our miniature trains.”
