Geocache Description:

A time to reflect on the old days when this used to be a station stop I tried to find some old station but came up empty handed. If any of you train buffs are out there would love to find one.
This is a nice easy one to find. Give yourself a hour or so if you are riding your bike from Bairnsdale or there is always the cheats way and take the car to the nearest rd and there is a short cut into it.

Bumberrah Railway Station and siding was opened on Monday 10 April 1916 as part of the Orbost railway line. It was closed in 1977, with the last train passing the site in 1987.[1][2]

The former station grounds have been preserved, with a diversity of native flora on the site remaining as a result of it being protected from grazing stock during its time in service to the railways.

A station name board exists at the site, along with a rest shelter and information board in a remnant grassy woodland reserve, as part of the East Gippsland Rail Trail, which follows the route of the former rail line.
