Merredin Railway Museum

The Merredin Railway Museum is housed in the historic Merredin Railway Station on Great Eastern Highway in Merredin, Western Australia, about 260 km east of Perth. Established in the former station building dating from the 1890s Eastern Goldfields Railway, it preserves railway memorabilia, photographs, uniforms and equipment illustrating the role of rail in opening the Wheatbelt and Goldfields during the gold rush era.

Visitors can expect to explore the heritage-listed Merredin Railway Station building with its platform and station rooms converted into exhibition spaces. Inside are displays of railway artefacts, historic photographs, documents, uniforms, signalling equipment and rolling stock memorabilia. The museum is volunteer-run and co-located with the active Transwa Prospector station and Central Wheatbelt Visitor Centre, offering a compact, indoor heritage experience focused on railway history.
