Apex Park Playground, Sunraysia Highway, St Arnaud
The highlight is an old traction engine which is fenced off. It was the first Marshall steam engine sold in Australia on the 28th June 1988, at a cost of 500 pounds. It was brought to St Arnaud from Melbourne by James Langdon and used until 1943 when boiler tubes were unobtainable due to the war. It was taken from farm to farm and used to power machinery such as chaff cutters.
High playground structure with wave slide, straight ladder, spiral ladder, tunnel and fireman's pole. Also three springers (sea lion, wombat and frog), small see-saw, swings and a metal climbing frame.
Unshaded table and limited grassy area.
