Wahgunyah station remains

Wahgunyah – Springhurst Railway
The remains of the Wahgunyah – Springhurst railway are in various forms:

  • Wahgunyah to Federation Road has rails and sleepers in place but appears to not be used.
  • Federation Road to Rutherglen has been converted to a rail trail – a bike track along railway right-of-way.
  • Rutherglen to Springhurst seems to be in tact, but is not used as far as I can tell.
