WA Railway Employees lost in war

Browse all (PDF)

Rail Heritage WA honours all who have served in war to defend our country and our values. We have worked to identify WA railway employees who enlisted in wars, and particularly those who died as a result of their service.

For example, in the first World War WA railwaymen responded as willingly as other citizens, and over the next four years a total of 2184 men were given leave to enlist. Unfortunately, 346 of these men lost their lives as a result.

Information on these men from both government and private railways has been researched by Rail Heritage WA volunteers.
