Junee Locomotive Depot

Junee Locomotive Depot, Railway museum in Junee, New South Wales, Australia

Junee Locomotive Depot is a railway museum in Junee, New South Wales, occupying a 42-road roundhouse completed in 1947 with a 100-foot turntable. Part of the building still serves as a workshop for reconditioning locomotives, while the museum displays steam locomotives 2413 and 3609, diesel locomotive 4872, a mail car, miniature trains, and a steam-driven accident crane.

The New South Wales Government Railways built the depot when the line from Sydney reached Junee in 1878. The 42-road, fully covered roundhouse was completed on 29 September 1947, the last steam locomotive depot built by the NSWGR. The State Rail Authority closed it on 9 July 1993; Junee Council leased the roundhouse in December 1994.

The depot's name comes from the roundhouse itself: a 42-road covered shed where locomotives were turned and serviced. Since 1994 part of the building has held a museum, while the rest is run as a workshop; since April 2010 the Junee Railway Workshop has overhauled eighteen 48 class locomotives for GrainCorp there.

The roundhouse sits on the Main Southern line in Junee, with the museum in one part and the Junee Railway Workshop's reconditioning work in the other. Keep to the marked visitor areas and stay clear of the workshop bays where locomotives are being rebuilt. The 100-foot turntable is the landmark to orient yourself by.

A working steam-powered accident crane and water tank wagons from emergency breakdown trains are on display, equipment rarely seen in museums today. These machines reveal how railways handled unexpected crises and maintained their systems.
