Heritage repairs to secure and stabilise the building  were made to the Terowie Railway Station by Brimblecombe Builders as well as:

  • Generally cleaning the site including removing all rubbish, debris and animal droppings

  • Making the subject building watertight

  • Reinstating / replacing missing sections of wall (ensuring the subject building is structurally
    stable)

  • Sealing the building from access by the public and vermin

  • Conserving the external facade fabric in order to prolong the life of the building

Terowie Railway Station was a very important railway stop in World War II - It is the scene of General Douglas MacArthur's famous "I'll be back" speech.
