Tarana railway station is a heritage-listed railway station located on the Main Western line in Tarana, in the Central West region of New South Wales, Australia. It is also known as the Tarana Railway Station and yard group. The property was added to the New South Wales State Heritage Register on 2 April 1999.[2]
It opened on 22 August 1872.[3] The track was lifted from the northern platform in 1996 when the section of the Main Western line between Wallerawang and Tarana was singled.[4]
It was the junction for the Oberon line that closed in 1979. The Oberon Tarana Heritage Railway group has a vision to restore the line from Oberon to Tarana.[5]
