The old Trawalla railway station opened back in 1874 on the Ararat line, at a time when the railways were the lifeblood of small towns and districts like this.
For more than a century it served locals, workers, and travellers passing through the region, quietly doing its job as the trains came and went.
Passenger services eventually ceased in October 1981, marking the end of an era for the station and the community it once connected.
Like so many country stations, Trawalla’s story is one of growth, change, and gradual decline as transport needs shifted, and rail traffic thinned out.
