Thirlmere Railway Station

Thirlmere railway station is a heritage railway station located on the Picton–Mittagong loop railway line, serving the town of Thirlmere in the Macarthur Region, New South Wales, Australia.

History

The station opened on 1 August 1885 as Redbank and was renamed Thirlmere on 1 August 1886. The station, along with the line, was closed to passenger services in 1978.

The station buildings have been restored by volunteers from the NSW Rail Museum in Thirlmere.

Every weekend the NSW Rail Museum operates four return heritage steam or diesel train services between Thirlmere and Buxton with special events operating heritage services between Central, Picton, Thirlmere, and Buxton.
