Location Orbost Location within Shire of East Gippsland

Orbost Railway Station was located in Orbost, Victoria and was the terminus of the Orbost railway line. To save on the costs of a bridge over the Snowy River, which had highly variable levels, the station was located on the west side of the river, even though the town of Orbost was on the east side.^[1]
