Location

The junction was an important centre for the small community. In 1918 the station master was given a lavish farewell and a marble clock when it was announced he was being transferred.^[2]

The sandstone used for the Shrine of Remembrance was quarried nearby and taken by train to Melbourne via Redesdale Junction.^[3]
