Narromine railway station

Narromine is a closed railway station in the town of Narromine on the Main West railway line in New South Wales, Australia. The station opened in 1882[1] but by 1939 revenue at the station was declining,[2] and by 1954 the station was in a state of disrepair,[3] and is now closed to passenger services, as passenger services now do not proceed past the town of Dubbo. The station survives in good condition and has been restored.
