The Walhalla Goldfields Railway is a 2 ft 6 in (762 mm) narrow gauge tourist railway located in the Thomson River and Stringers Creek valleys in Gippsland, Victoria, Australia, near the former gold-mining town and tourist destination of Walhalla.

The Challenge

Walhalla Goldfields Railway keeps a working fleet of diesel locomotives and passenger carriages clean, maintained and ready for service.

The railway has around three to four diesel engines in various stages of operation and refurbishment, along with three to four carriages. 

The Solution

Their choice was the SPITWATER SW2021 21LPM Hot Water Pressure Cleaner.

Its combination of hot water and high flow helps soften and shift heavy grease and grime from engines, components and railway equipment. Built-in hot water also supports mobile use across the site, without relying on a separate hot water supply.

With multiple operators, simple operation was equally important. The SW2021 offers straightforward controls without unnecessary electronics.

The Results

“Walhalla Goldfields Railway recently took delivery of a SPITWATER hot water pressure cleaner for use on our railway equipment. Lou from SPITWATER provided excellent support, personally delivering the unit and demonstrating how to use it.

The unit will greatly assist the railway to keep locomotives and other equipment looking clean and well cared for. We would highly recommend this Australian company for service and support.”

Backed by the right accessories, FlowRPM chemicals and local training, the railway has a complete cleaning setup ready for the work ahead.
