Old Railway Station | Lancefield |
The historic Old Railway Station in Lancefield houses a Bed & Breakfast and Margaret's Gallery.
Lancefield Railway Station was the end of the passenger line and until a few short years ago, also housed the original turning circle which headed the engine back towards the big smoke and overcrowded wharves. Local boys would make a beeline to the station after school every day, where they would delight in turning the steam behemoths with just the touch of a small hand.
Lancefield Station closed in 1956 and for a time, appeared to be in danger of fading away. A small succession of subsequent owners undertook restoration works and, gradually the station and adjoining station master's residence was returned to its former glory.
As the old saying goes, "If walls could talk", the walls at the station would have a good deal to say. Stories abound including a bullet fired through the glass of a waiting room door (yes, the hole is still there) when a riot ensued because a resident station master refused to get out of bed to open a freight wagon containing cigarettes. Just goes to show you that cigarettes were once as important as beer!
