Two sets of rails run straight between platforms at Bombala Station. Rust colours the track surface. Moss and weeds push through the ballast. To the left, the cream and maroon station building sits low against the platform edge. Opposite, a corrugated iron goods shed opens onto a timber-decked loading dock. Trolleys and crates sit idle on its surface. A white steel footbridge spans overhead, connecting the platforms. Cloud cover breaks across a wide Monaro sky.

The series
Bombala Station
Bombala railway station is the terminus of the Goulburn-Bombala branch line, sitting at the southern end of the Monaro in NSW, near the Victorian border. The Nimmitabel to Bombala section opened on 21 November 1921, and every building in the yard dates from that year: the pre-cast concrete station building, signal box, goods shed, footbridge, turntable, gantry crane, cattle yard, and barracks. The last passenger service ran in August 1974. The last goods train rolled out on 26 March 1986. Listed on the NSW State Heritage Register (item 5011934, 2 April 1999), the station is described as one of the most intact country terminus sites from the 1920s railway expansion, with the station building rated as one of the best surviving pre-cast concrete structures in NSW. The Friends of Bombala Railway maintain the precinct as a heritage museum.
