Bomen railway station is a heritage-listed closed railway station located on the Main South line at Bomen in the Riverina region of New South Wales, Australia. The station opened in 1878 as North Wagga Wagga and was briefly the terminus of the line before a bridge was constructed across the Murrumbidgee River to reach Wagga Wagga. It was renamed Bomen in 1882.[1] The property was added to the New South Wales State Heritage Register on 2 April 1999.[2] Passenger trains no longer stop at the station.[1]
