Background

About Scott McGregor

Scott McGregor is a widely recognised actor, TV presenter and author, who's passion for railways and rail history has been the basis for building a successful legacy in documentary production, antiques and collectibles, tourist accommodation and special interest train travel. Scott's passion, vision and energy is legendary. While still appearing on stage and screen across the land, he built and ran the widely renowned Antique retail and restoration outlet,'Off The Rails Collectables', for more than a decade in Sydney and developed Ruwenzori, a unique luxury retreat in his hometown of Mudgee, NSW. Perched high on the Great Dividing Range with sweeping views of Mudgee to the north and the Hunter Valley to the south, Ruwenzori is surrounded by 25 hectares of native bush, offering absolute peace and privacy. Living and sleeping in converted 100-year-old railway carriages decorated in Orient Express style luxury, the retreat provides self-contained accommodation for up to 13 people, configured to suit couples, families or groups of friends. A single-hire policy ensures complete privacy for your group. Guest reviews include such things as "an unforgettable experience","the best holiday we've ever had", and "the most magical place we've been to". In 2012, Scott launched Railway Adventures, a travel company dedicated to providing specialised small-group tours of culture, character and history, travelling on some of the world's greatest trains, often privately chartered for that one-off, unique experience. Just 5 years later, Railway Adventures now runs some 20 tours on 5 continents every year. From Tasmania to Taiwan, from Vienna to Vietnam, India to Istanbul, Sri Lanka to Switzerland, Japan to Java, Queensland to Queenstown, Cuba to Croatia - there's something for everyone.
