Willing Billy

PUFFING Billy will support the local community by taking part in the Cardinia Festival on the first weekend in March.
The railway will have a stall promoting the wide range of Puffing Billy products and steam train experiences, alongside the best wine, food and local produce the region has to offer.
Puffing Billy marketing manager Nadine Hutchins sees the Cardinia Festival as a perfect opportunity to support the community and encourages other business to do the same.
“This event is a great opportunity for local businesses and attractions to take part in showcasing the best of what our community has to offer, which is why Puffing Billy Railway will be participating in the Cardinia Festival,” Ms Hutchins said.
The Cardinia Festival will be held on 5-6 March in the picturesque grounds of the Carlei Green Vineyard in Alber Road, Upper Beaconsfield. The festival will run from 11am to 5pm on Saturday and Sunday.
Business owners wanting to participate can contact event co-ordinator Rebecca Carlei on 0421 459 381.
