Is there actually a place called Hotham Valley? I know it's the name of the company btw.

The Hotham River flows between Dwellingup and Pinjarra. It has carved out a valley. Not sure if Hotham Valley is listed as an official place name though.

They still have diesel-hauled trains through summer. Their trains through the forest to Etmilyn are all diesel hauled anyway.

I did it once. There was no ham and it was quite cold. 0/10

I did this as a kid. You would catch the train from the City to Pinjarra. The steam locomotive is then brought in and takes you to Dwellingup. That all changed when the fire damaged infrastructure. A real shame as it was great fun :)

Are you trying to sound like a super-villain? Because this is kind of making you sound like a super-villain...

I think there a fair few people here that would question the "super" part

But by golly I'll change their minds yet!
