History of the Eudunda Railway Station
History
Eudunda Railway Station, built in 1878, showcases exquisite Victorian railway architecture and once linked Morgan’s paddle steamers to Adelaide’s ports, underpinning SA Railways’ most profitable wool trade. Its distinctive stone design—matched only by Morgan Station—was enlarged three times over 30 years to accommodate booming passenger, stationmaster, and agricultural traffic, driving Eudunda’s economic surge, including the state’s largest furniture store outside Adelaide. Closed to passengers in 1968 and shuttered to grain traffic by 1994, the station now lies derelict, ravaged by vandalism, termites, and damp. With local townspeople and rail enthusiasts eager, the new owner plans a faithful restoration to preserve this heritage landmark for generations to come.
