Geocache Description:


Wubin Wheat Bin Museum

A great place to visit, the Wubin Wheat Bin Museum explores the story of grain handling and transport as well as the history of Rabbit Proof Fence No.2.

You can also see hundreds of rocks from a private collection plus the last known surviving 10kw art deco AWA broadcasting transmitter in Australia. This huge unit dates back to the 1940’s and had a former life as 6DL Dalwallinu in the 1960s. You can see the components in this machine, such as the huge tube transistors. These days, transistors are so small they are measured on the nano-scale, there may be around 1 or 2 billion inside your smartphone performing a range of functions right now.

The Museum is open June long weekend to mid-October 10am – 3pm daily, head to the Railway Station Visitor Centre. 

This site is part of the Wheatbelt Science Trail and GeoTrail, you can find more sites of interest across the region on the map.
