The West Coast Wilderness Railway is the name given to the publicly funded reconstruction of the railway line from Queenstown to Strahan on Tasmania's west coast.

The timetable generally includes services from both Regatta Point (Strahan) each and Queenstown, with a mix of half day and full day trips depending on the day.Where possible all trains are steam hauled.
