With the relocation of rail operations from the Geraldton
foreshore to Narngulu, the Geraldton Railway station is isolated from the main system. On this page we feature a few photos
of the old yard and station surrounds. The station has been preserved and restored by a local owner and called "Geraldton
Central".
The trackside of the Heritage listed Railway Station. The station
was served by a dead end track and run round loop.
Today, a single track disconnected from the main system exists.
The Railway Station is privately owned and stage one of an extensive restoration program has been completed by a locally owned
company.
