Harden railway station in Harden, New South Wales is on the Main Southern railway line between Yass Junction and Cootamundra.
A railway station was opened one km east of Murrumburrah on the Main Southern line in 1877 as Murrumburrah Station, but changed its name to Harden Station, a year after the opening of a new station in Murrumburrah in 1879.[1] Harden has remained as the main station and, as a result, became the main town.
The Main Southern Railway passes through Harden which was once one of the great railway towns. Countrylink provide four XPT services passing through the town daily, an Xplorer service to Griffith on Saturday returning Sundays and a daily coach service between Cootamundra and Canberra.
