Pioneer Settlement Locomotive and Tender Restoration

Swan Hill Rural City Council (Council) invites suitably qualified contractors to submit tenders for the restoration and conservation of the historic locomotive and tender located at the Pioneer Settlement in Swan Hill, Victoria. Works will include structural repairs, surface preparation, application of protective coatings and historically accurate detailing, all undertaken with respect for the item’s heritage value. This project aims to preserve a significant piece of transport heritage while ensuring its long-term structural integrity and visual appeal.

Tenderers should note that the Pental Island Bridge project and PS Gem Restoration Works may be occurring concurrently and appropriate coordination will be required to avoid site conflicts
