XP 2006 & XP 2007 - Culcairn NSW

XP 2006 (City of Wagga) & XP2007 (City of Albury) coming in to Culcairn Station, New South Wales, Australia.

Culcairn station opened on 1 September 1880 when the Main South line was extended from Wagga to Gerogery. Opposite the platform lies a passing loop.

The 1883 built station master's residence has been restored by the Culcairn Museum Committee.

On 3 October 1892, Culcairn became a junction station with the opening of the Corowa line and an island platform added. On 18 September 1902, the Holbrook line opened. Both lines have since closed and the island platform demolished.

Culcairn is served by two daily NSW TrainLink XPT services in each direction operating between Sydney and Melbourne.
