Contextual Information

By 1897 at Newcastle (now known as Toodyay) a station building had been constructed a short distance west of the original terminus at the site now occupied by the Toodyay Medical and Community Centres. This line was then extended to Bolgart in 1909, to Calingiri in 1917, Piawanning in 1919 and finally to Miling in 1925.
