Railway station.

in railway •  3 years ago 

Today I arrived back home after my week away living the vanlife. A couple of days ago I stayed at a small town called Murgon and I went for an afternoon walk about town. One of the interesting buildings from it's past is the old railway station. Trains have not come to Murgon for many decades and the station is now used as a men's shed. This is were men can come and work on their own projects and often do work for projects around the town.

This is the old station.

It's also a place for men to spend time and talk about things and help their mental well being etc. Most of the men are retired and have many skills and looking for an outlet plus they help teach young men how to work on cars or build stuff etc. Many towns and cities in Australia have a men's shed now.
