Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The station environment also contains intact structures associated with former railway operations. Some of these yard structures include Signal Cabin A, a water crane and a wagon weighbridge.

Signal Cabin A is a two-storeyed chamferboard-clad building with pitched corrugated iron roofs and a cantilevered timber catwalk overlooking the railway at first-floor level. The building contains intact but disconnected mechanical signalling equipment. The first floor contains a large frame of colour-coded mechanical steel signalling levers, timber and brass track indicators, and a yard diagram.

The Water Crane comprises of a cast iron hollow tube surmounted by a rotating cast iron feeder arm with valve controls and a canvas tube attached, mounted on a concrete pedestal and adjacent to a concrete drain. The Wagon Weighbridge comprises a large steel scale housed in a chamferboard-clad building with a pitched corrugated iron roof and a large metal balance plate.
