Historic Photo

Mittagong railway station is located on the Main Southern line in New South Wales, Australia. It serves the town of Mittagong opening on 1 March 1867.[1]

The station is the junction for the old alignment of the Main South Railway line from Picton, and for the now lifted line to the ghost town of Joadja.

The Platform 1 station building was erected in 1873 and the wooden structure on Platform 2 in 1919 when the line was duplicated.[2]
