On 31 October 2025 the Gladstone Area Water Board (GAWB) unveiled a new sign acknowledging it's sponsorship and generous donation of pipe off-cuts from the Fitzroy to Gladstone pipeline to MELSA Gladstone Inc. The off-cuts will be repurposed for model train and wagon storage, directly supporting MELSA's work running the popular train rides at the Port Curtis Historical Village.

GAWB C.E.O. Darren Barlow said: "We're proud to support local community groups and see materials given a new life serving a great cause. We hope this donation helps MELSA continue delighting families and visitors at the village."

MELSA Gladstone Inc. president, Alan Suter, said: MELSA is deeply grateful to GAWB. Their support makes a real difference - without sponsorship like this, we couldn't keep the trains running for our community."

The Sensory running day for model trains at the Calliope Historical Village today has been cancelled due to the wet weather. MELSA Gladstone apologises for any inconvenience.
