Bungendore railway station is located on the Bombala line in New South Wales, Australia. It serves the town of Bungendore.
History
Bungendore station opened on 4 March 1885 when the Bombala line was extended from Tarago. It served as the terminus until the line was extended to Queanbeyan on 8 September 1887.[1][2][3] Opposite the platform lies a passing loop.
On 17 June 1940, Bungendore became a junction station when the Captains Flat line opened, branching off the Bombala line five kilometres south of the station. [3]
Bungendore station was used in the filming of The Year My Voice Broke and the Mick Jagger version of Ned Kelly.
