Pinjarra railway station is located on the South Western Railway in Western Australia. It is located at the town of Pinjarra.
Pinjarra station opened on 22 May 1893 as the interim terminus of the South Western Railway from Perth. On 22 August 1893, the line was extended to Bunbury. [1] [2] In the early 1900s the station had an island platform and pedestrian bridge as part of the station layout. [3] [4] In 1911, Pinjarra became a junction station with the opening of the Pinjarra to Narrogin railway. For a period of time operations of the Hotham Valley Railway, extended to its depot opposite the Pinjarra station. [5] [6] Following the cessation of mainline activity by the Hotham Valley Railway, the station and yard are separate from the railway which terminates at Isandra Siding. In 1986, the station building was destroyed in a fire. A new building was erected in 2007 and housed the Pinjarra Visitor Centre. [7] [8] The station was used by Transwa's twice daily Australind service. [9] It is currently suspended due to works in Metropolitan Perth South West railway upgrading.
