Bundy's Last Great Adventure

This is a story of a final journey through stunningly beautiful country, in a small, cantankerous train called Bundy.

A small group of cane-train enthusiasts drive a retired Puffin Billy called Bundy through scenic Queensland on a ride that is a real original, from the ex-volcanic plains of the south, to the mountains, world heritage rainforest jungles and the Great Barrier Reef of the north.

This trip is about challenging wild and dangerous weather, riding tracks submerged under swollen, crocodile-infested rivers, or covered with the thick blanket of smoke from burning sugar cane. The scenery we encounter is amongst the most beautiful on earth, and includes World Heritage rainforest and the Great Barrier Reef.

At the very edge of extinction the Australian bilby has been given a second chance. Two larger than life characters, Peter McRae, a scientist with a lifetime passion for the little long eared, long nosed desert marsupial and Frank Manthey, a big man with a big heart join forces to save the bilby from its inevitable fate.

Through a massive marketing campaign, fundraising and an army of volunteers they finally do the impossible and build a fence around some of the harshest but stunning desert country to be found in Australia.
