A picture tells a thousand words - and in historical research, a picture may often show something for which no words have been written.
Rail Heritage WA has collected photographs and images over many years and these are available for research purposes thanks to the assistance of Lotterywest.
Please contact our archivist if you would like full size images or more information:
