Rockhampton Railway Workshops, Railway maintenance facility in Depot Hill, Rockhampton, Australia
The Rockhampton Railway Workshops complex includes a roundhouse, machine shops, and maintenance facilities spread across multiple industrial buildings on Bolsover Street.
Established between 1915 and 1953, the workshops emerged from Queensland's 1863 Railway Bill commitment to narrow gauge rail development in the region.
The workshops represent Queensland's industrial heritage through their architectural elements, featuring steel frames, concrete floors, and corrugated iron cladding common in the era.
The facility continues to operate as a maintenance center for railway rolling stock, with recent renovations adding administrative spaces within the original structures.
The roundhouse stands as the only full circular design built for steam locomotives in Queensland and one of two remaining examples in Australia.
