Cobdogla is the home of the Irrigation and Steam Museum, centred on a pair of Humphrey pumps, one of which is operable,[a] and boasts a working 3 km railway with both a diesel and a steam locomotive (originally used by Humes Ltd. to transport pipes for the Loveday pipeline), a traction engine and numerous stationary engines, all in working order, maintained and operated by enthusiasts, as well as static displays on various river topics – Village Settlements, Loveday Internment Camp and Irrigation maintained by the National Trust of South Australia.[6] Open days are infrequent as a great deal of (voluntary) labour is involved.
^The remarkable Humphrey pump, the only functioning example in the world, has been demonstrated at open days in the early 21st-century, contingent on OH&S approval.
